hard to say No
My daughter like every kid likes toys.Always when we go shopping she wants something new.When we reject buying new stuff she gets upset. She often starts screaming and makes scenes at the store. It is so ambarrasing for us so usually we give up and she can leave the store with all she wants . How to teach her that she can not have everything?Does someone have any idea how to get rid of that kind of behavior?

Set up shopping trips in which you can practice teaching her to accept "no" - Remember it is a skill she needs to learn. If the child accepts no - praise her and give her access to another item she desires (i.e. bring stickers along). If she doesn't accept no, be sure not to give in. When you are in a hurry, try bringing alternative, preferred activties with you for her to engage in. If the tantrums are incredibly intense or you feel like you have lost control, you may want to look in a behavioral assessment and assistance from a trained professional.
