Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Why do tantrums happen? A tantrum is the expression of a young child’s frustration with his or her limitations or anger about not being able to get his or her way. Perhaps your child is having trouble figuring something out or completing a task. Maybe your child doesn’t have the words to express his or her feelings.

Detailed explanation-2: -Whatever the cause, kids who throw a lot of tantrums lack skills to manage their emotions. They often struggle with problem-solving, communicating their needs, and calming themselves down. Many parents aren’t sure how to help their children when they have a tantrum or a meltdown.

Detailed explanation-3: -Atypical or severe tantrums, which are often marked by extreme aggression, high frequency, suddenness and specific triggers, are often the first (and easiest to recognize) sign of a behavioral, mood or anxiety disorder.
