I never watched Nanny 911 but I do remember Supernanny back in the day. I think one of the messages I took away was to love the little one even when they freak out and cry and meltdown, maybe that isn't such a bad message when the little part of you is melting down, to try and have compassion and love for yourself. If you are anything like me, it's not a bad idea to have a time out every now and then either lol
I know when my little has a tantrum the feelings seem bigger than he knows what to do with and so we just sit together, I hug him, we wait and I am there, no yelling while he is mid tantrum as it doesn't do anything, he can't hear me in that state. Maybe those are things to think about when your little part is active.
