Nothing will actually prevent this. But the obvious things like good food, hydration, a steady sleep routine, outdoor play, and limited screen time probably help.

Honestly, hard to say. Girls are different than boys with this. Girls will fall and immediately start the water works. I quickly jump in and say great job! You are so brave and things like that. I try to turn their woes into something they fixed themselves. I am only sharing from what I know as a mom. But raising them with good Godly morals is key.

You cannot prevent certain normal growing pains. Not every kid will throw a tantrum, and a kid throwing a tantrum is not always an indictment of your parenting.

Your job as a parent is to raise a healthy, intelligent, responsible human. Somone who can think for and take of themselves.

You should always be calm and rational with your kids. Sometimes discipline or even punishment is needed to correct bad behavior, but never do it in anger, and try to make it constructive.

For a tantrum in particular just don't give it any fuel and it burns out almost instantly. I wouldn't even acknowledge it beyond just instantly picking them up and going home. My general opinion is that if you can't behave in public then you're going home, and if you throw a tantrum there won't even be a discussion anymore - your opinion on the matter is no longer relevant. It usually only takes a single time because it's a shameful experience for the kid if you don't match their emotional intensity and remain calm.

Regular beatings seemed to work for me. I was almost afraid to fucking breath most of the time...

My four month old has learned that he's fine most of the time, and that if we aren't upset/concerned he doesn't need to be. Heck we got him sleeping through the night at six weeks with that kinda treatment. We talk to him, read him books and established a routine. One of our asian friends was absolutely dumbfounded that I get on the floor and play with him during tummy time.

Sleep training was a bit more complicated but letting him cry for ten minutes or so before responding and being boring did the trick. Sleep time is sleep time.

Be a parent, raise your kid, don't put them in day care to learn bad habits.

Never let your kid get their way from throwing a tantrum. If they learn that acting up gets them what they want, they will do it more and more. They will still have tantrums, this should subside by about age 4 (2 year olds being the worst). When they happen, encourage your child to gain control of themselves. Once they do, you can address what the problem was without reinforcing bad behaviour.

If you hold a pillow tightly over it's face long enough, it will quit...

Be 'parents'.

Regular whipping when child is acting up and regularly at other times as a prophylactic whipping treatment. Announcing why the whipping will be done and how many times the whip will be used, counting between whips to buttocks. When older, use a belt with metal studs in it but a lighter touch.

I saw a crazy thing where you throw a piece of processed cheese single on their head and they short circuit. Not sure if real?

Be White.
