Tantrum Queens: Epi Apr 11

Tantrum Queens: Epi Apr 11

Anyone who has dealt with kids, is I am sure very familiar with the term 'temper tantrums.'

There are two age groups of kids who throw the most tantrums: toddlers and teenagers.

Toddlers throw tantrums because they can't express themselves. If they are tired, hungry, sleepy or just upset because their parents are ignoring them, then they often go into a barrage of tantrums, screeching and yelling.

"I hate you!"

"You are the worst mom in the world."

"I want it…NOW!"

What does a parent do in such a situation? Ignore them, pacify them, give in or walk away? In different situations, different strategies work but what always works is showing the child that the parent is always there for them, they will love them unconditionally, hold them and kiss them but not necessarily give in or agree to all their demands.

When parents ask, "why does my child throw so many tantrums?"

Others/teachers usually reply, "Really? Your child is an angel at school. Perhaps he is very comfortable with you that's why he reserves the worst behavior for you."

Such is the case with Zoya and Dilshaad.

The toddler of the day award goes to none other than Ms Zoya Farooqui. Now that she knows Asad Ahmed Khan really wants her to stay, she knows she can throw tantrums around him, just like a kid would do in the comfort of their home. Just as a toddler can't express their real reason for the tantrum, Zoya can't either. She calls Asad 'bura,' 'emotionally challenged,' but in reality what she wants from him is a big bear hug and words, "Zoya…don't worry, main hoon na…sab theek kar doonga." If he says those magical words, she will stop screeching, howling and shedding crocodile tears just to get his attention.

Bechara Asad. He needs some parenting classes now. If he can just hold her in his arms, she will melt like a little girl. Recently, all her dreams have been of Asad holding her, wiping her tears and pacifying her. That's what she really wants- and wants it NOW!

So, Ms Zoya Farooqui, instead of accusing him of being emotionally challenged and unable to express himself; can you do that instead? Tell him, your real reason to stay is Asad and no one else, you want him to be there for you, he is your strength and no matter what, she would never leave his side. Guess what, your emotionally challenged man might just surprise you then.

Then we have teenage tantrums. Teenagers often throw tantrums because they know if they irritate their parents sufficiently, they will give in to their demands.

"I want a new iPod!"

"I want a new iPad!"

"Why can't I go out with my friends when everyone else can?"

"You are the worst mom!"

Dilshaad is the teenager of the day. Since she has found out that Zoya really doesn't want to go, she has taken it upon herself to make sure Zoya's desire is fulfilled and indirectly, her desire is fulfilled. She has always had a soft corner for Zoya and whether she sees a future daughter in law in her is still up in the air. But the fact remains that she adores Zoya like she were her own daughter.

I have a feeling she has also sensed that Asad wants Zoya to stay. The sudden change in her behavior makes me feel so. She has now thrust Asad with the responsibility of making it happen, just like a teenager gives an ultimatum to their parent- give me the latest iPad or I will throw a big tantrum.

Asad has always wanted to marry someone like his mother. Well, besides all the wonderful qualities these two ladies share, Asad mian they are the biggest tantrum queens. Are you ready for both of them? Bechara Asad. I think his only recourse is to marry Zoya now- kill two birds with one stone. It would be a win-win situation for all. Both the tantrum queens will calm down, and he will get the love of his life forever.

Symbolisms of the day:

1. I am sure you have heard of the story of 'the cat and two monkeys.' How the cat takes advantage of the two fighting monkeys and ends up eating all the bread. There was a scene today where Asad and Zoya were shown bickering in mute, while Tanveer stood between them in the background, planning her next move. The moral of the story is, if the monkeys unite and stop fighting over the piece of bread, the cat will have no recourse but to run away.

2. Zoya's life will be in danger soon? We saw a preview of ZOYA!!!! Even the thought of danger to her life, makes Asad go bonkers. So, will we have Mangalpur part 2 soon?

Haha,tantrum queens ( now only Najma is left to drive Asad crazy.) 😆

You are right about the tantrum parts. I love this tantrum queen. And Asad is really a bechara here. He really needs parenting class. It will be a treat to watch then how Asad handles his tantrum queen.😆

Hopefully...theres nothing i want more than a mangalpur part 2...with more intense asya scenes..even more intense than the lag ja gale eye locks <3

Is it fair that she keeps calling him emotionally challenged? She heard in the video that yes he cant openly express his feelings. Why does she still give him that title though?... Anyway always great reading your thoughts 😊

M in love with your titles...
Today was first step towards numerous event when zoya begum will shout n scream on Asad,
and all the while asking him to comfort her , hug her and talk to her..

Whereas Asad miyah is on the level when he cant even listen anything happening to zoya, symbolism tht he will be her Wall, and will stand betwween all dhurander and razia tanu duo...

And at the end of the day AsYa tom n jerry hi rahein ge . Ek dosre se jagra bhi bt ek dosre k bagair reh bhi nahi sakte..

I just love your post.
Tantrum queens...ahaan!!!! Never thought of this but you nailed the comparison. Truly, asad had hard time convincing both!!! I love this angle. Hope they do that with asad in future too 😛
I remember reading your post about similarities b/w zoya and dilshaad, so we can add this too!!
Loved the symbolisms too. I will so want to see mangalpur part 2.

I just loved both the tantrum queens...and Asad having to deal with both...
Looks like there is danger to Zoya's life, hope Asad her hero is there in time

Superb post!
