I have just called into the local supermarket to pick up a few things, and all the way round I could hear a child screaming. The noise was awful and the child seemed to be out of control. When I got to the checkout the Mother and little girl where in the next queue. Despite several people trying to pacify her, the child continued to scream and shout and cry, by this time the Mother was getting extremely stressed, the little girl threw herself on the floor, the Mother was trying to grab hold of her. so "mithered" As I paid for my shopping and was walking out with the supermarket , I could still hear the child screaming. I don't know what was wrong, but I felt so sorry for the Mother. I have never personally experienced this sort of behaviour, just how does one deal with it? |

Our step grandson threw an almighty strop in Asda cos he was told he couldnt have the Dr Who magazine that was around the £2 price. . he screamed and shouted and came out with some foul language . He has learning difficulties with autistic tendencies and unfortunately from somewhere has just found not nice language.. |

I do feel for anyone when a child acts up in that way. |

@ Shirley. I have a special needs granddaughter, so this thought did cross my mind. However seeing the Mothers reaction it did not seem to be the case. |

you always have to consider the child may have special needs - in the supermarket once there was a litlle girl, about six or seven, shoving her little brother round in a pushchair and causing mayhem - knocking things off displays and crashing into trolleys - parents seemed oblivious, so when she went head on with my trolley and refused t move with a defiant look on her face, I just leaned over and and said "you really are a horrible little girl aren't you" - response from her were horrendous screams for Mummy - I just carried on with my shopping, but things went rather quiet after that |

When I was in Oz last year I was taken to the Blue mountains and my then 8 year old granddaughter threw a terrible tantrum because she wanted to go on a funicular ride down the side of a steep mountain. |

My daughter had a srtop when she was 2 in Gamleys toy shop. I took her outside, pulled her pants down in front of everyone and tapped her bottom just enough to make her undertstand enough was enough.. She never did it again. |

My autistic son could throw a right old trantrum when he was little. If people stared or passed comment, they got stared back and told about him. usually put them off. |

Shirley & Andrew I understand the difficulties with special needs children as I have a granddaughter with mild learning difficulties, and she has had her moments when she was younger. The way the Mother spoke to the little girl made me think she was gaving a tantrum. |
