Flower power ‘soothes children’s tantrums’

FLOWER power has proved to be a remedy for temper tantrums among children, according to research by academics.

The essence remedies had a “significant” effect on behaviour, the University of Plymouth findings revealed.

Studies found that 73% of parents of children with moderate to severe temper tantrums experienced some benefit after giving them the Bach Flower essence remedy — with parents reporting 42% fewer tantrums.
