Just a bit of a background: I've had to separate the twins at naptime. At this time, Callen slept in baby Jack's crib for naps only. Yes, he can climb out without injuring himself. Oh, and he rarely wears pants.
1. Demonstrate your position on the issue verbally/with screaming if necessary.
2. Sit and cover yourself with a blanket, still whimpering.
3. Get a second wind and restart the tantrum. Attempt to climb out if needed for emphasis.
4. Contemplate giving in with blanket over head again.
5. Rest your head for a second because maybe you are tired.
6. Be careful, laying down feels nice.
7. Woah, that was close. Try making noise again.
8. Lay down and rest a bit. You've earned it. A leg up on the side rail shows you're "just pretending" to give in.
