Viva can throw a mighty fine tantrum. She throws herself onto the floor (she chooses carpet, if it's close by) and then she arches her back and kicks her feet and really gets into it. She's loud and mad and--this is important when throwing a good tantrum--she sticks to her guns. Or as her mother says, she stays in the zone. If you try and comfort her, she pushes you away and carries on loudly.
Yes, Viva is good at tantrums.
Jake...well, he prefers to be held and cuddled and is much too easily pacified to throw a good tantrum. He can shriek pretty well and sometimes continues to do so even after you pick him up, but he doesn't ever try to push you away. That boy likes to be held.

It must be a girl thing! Millikins does the same thing with her fits; we just walk away till she gets it all out then pick her up and snuggle her.
But you can't deny that she is one REALLY cute Queen...even if her "throne" is a tantrum!
