This was a great post to read! While, luckily, my Mini has never had a public tantrum, she has had tantrums, screaming to the point where I thought to myself (on multiple occasions) "this is it. this is the day someone calls the cops" because you would think by her screams, that I was beating her. Every parent knows the dread of tantrums, be it public or private. Stay strong mama, brighter days are coming.
