Having children is one difficult task. Especially when the children start to throw tantrums, that's when it gets really interesting! They will test your patience more than you've ever been tested before. Dr. Forrest Talley is a clinical psychologist and he writes on his blog a very practical way to look at dealing with tantrums. When a child doesn't get what they want, but you cave in 3 out of 5 times, they will continue to throw the tantrum because they know they just MIGHT get what they want. Dr. Tally gives the logic of this concept, and just exactly how and when you should reinforce behavior.
