Husband wants to handle tantrums one way, I another.

Hey parents. We have a 15 month old who just had his first tantrum yesterday. He's been sick for over a week and he's sick and tired of being sick and tired so cue 40 minutes scream and thrash fest. He was alternating between screaming to be put down and wanting to be held and comforted. i think he was mad at me because I couldn't fix it for him, but still needed comfort. I was alone so I tried to calm him down but my husband is positively sure that tantrums require being ignored until LO is "over it". I'm ok with him doing this, but as the mommy I do not want to handle them this way. I want our kid to know he can always come to mommy for comfort. I don't want to give in to unreasonable toddler whims, but I don't think trying to comfort him is the same as "giving in".Anyway none of this is really the point. My question is: can we handle tantrums differently and still be good parents? Or do we need to be consistent and handle them the same way? I'm really hoping it's the former because I don't see DH and I coming to a consensus on this. I'm sure I'm right and he's sure he's right. (Classic).Tl;dr: can parents handle tantrums differently without screwing up kid? Or do we need to handle the exact same way? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2xYzy3B
