| has gloss | eng: A tantrum is an emotional outburst of ill humor or a fit of bad temper wherein the higher cognitive functions are unable to stop the emotional expression of the putative lower (emotional and physical) functions. It can be categorized by an irrational fit of crying, screaming, defiance, angry ranting and a resistance to every attempt at pacification in which even physical control is lost. The person may not stand or sit on their own. Even when the "goal" of the person is met, he or she is not calmed. |
