That solved the tantrum problem rather quickly. A little bit of reverse psychology.

Good for her!! Most times kids get away with this kind of behavior because the parents get embarassed. I would rather be embarassed then let my kind get away with this. However, I think most parents wish they had the guts to do this, so maybe embarrassed is the wrong word.
