Reduce tears and tantrums with sign language

One benefit that shows why sign language should be taught to infants is that it reduces tears, tantrums, and frustration. In short it reduces frustration from the child and the parent. A parent would have very much annoyance at being unable to communicate with their child. A child also wants very badly to be able to communicate their needs to their parents. If a child is given the opportunity to communicate with their parents through sign language, they will begin to cry less and communicate more. The only reason for an infant to cry is because they have a need that isn't being met. It would be nice if my children didn't throw so many fits.
