A parent of a toddler asks a nurse at a well-child visit how the child's frequent temper tantrums can best be handled. Which of the following actions should the nurse suggest to the parent?

A. Distracting the child by offering to play a game can be an effective strategy to redirect the child’s focus and help manage temper tantrums. B. Ignoring temper tantrums might be appropriate in some cases, but it's important to ensure the child is safe. It may not be effective for every child or situation. C. Restraining the child physically could escalate the tantrum and may not address the underlying need for attention or redirection. D. Simply telling the child that tantrums are not acceptable may not be effective at this developmental stage. Redirection is usually more successful.
