Description of technique for dealing with temper tantrums:
On a car ride home or at home when kids are fighting play the silent game. It'll stop the kids from fighting and concentrating on being quiet and winning the contest. Plus it gives you some time to think! Get some prizes involved as in who ever doesn't talk gets an extra scoop of ice cream or gets to stay up 5 mins later! Believe me, it works!
