The Supermarket Tantrum

Mel W from Restorying Journey

It happened in the middle of the supermarket.
My child wanted the blue lollipop, not the red one. Then — the tears, the screams, the looks from strangers. 😔

It happened in the middle of the supermarket.
My child wanted the blue lollipop, not the red one. Then — the tears, the screams, the looks from strangers. 😔

For a moment, I felt my own body tense — embarrassed, frustrated, helpless.
Then I took a deep breath. 🌬️
I knelt down and whispered, “You’re safe. I can see you’re really upset.”
He kept crying… but softer. His little body started to melt in my arms.
In that moment, I realised: he wasn’t trying to make a scene — he was overwhelmed.
And what he needed most wasn’t control or correction — it was connection. 🤍
Later, we talked about it. We named the feelings, and he told me, “I was mad because I really wanted that blue one.” Simple words, but powerful honesty.
Parenting isn’t about perfection. It’s about staying calm enough to show our children what safety feels like — even when the world is watching. 🌱
