I've been lucky with my daughter.  She started throwing tantrums a couple of
months ago (she's presently 15 1/2 months old).  She taught herself to stop
throwing tantrums...unfortunately it was the hard way (literally).  She wanted
to go outside one afternoon -- nice weather, the whole bit.  She had been
outdoors most of the day at the babysitter's.  When I came home, she still
wanted to be outside.  So I took her out, and she scrambled out of my arms
(it seemed more like jumping out to me).  When I tried to pick her up again,
she threw herself down on the ground and rapped her head on the cement walk.
No concussion (thank God!), but she hasn't thrown a tantrum since.
