RE: Oh my! Such passionate, frequent tantrums! Am I the only one?
I totally agree that travel has a very disruptive effect. I find that Sarah sleeps much worse when we travel, so is always in a slightly overtired state. Almost all her tantrums happen when she has gotten overtired. And you also get out of your normal routine, which can throw them off balance.
Sarah is generally very easy going, but even she still has tantrums now and then. I don't think its normal for a toddler to NOT have tantrums occasionally! Glad things are going better now.
