I don't remember my daughter (now 8) having them too often, but my son (age 4) is right in the midst of some terrible tantrums. I know it's normal, but I still want to make sure that he's not going to hurt himself or have any long term problems. This story on National Public Radio really helps me understand what's going on with the tantrums and help them get past them. Best advice from the story? Do nothing! :)
