The clip was posted on Monday by the boys' mother, who goes by the handle @Ashleyoutloud on the platform.

According to the mom, the younger of the two boys wanted to play video games, but the console wasn't charged.

The adorable four-year-old thought it would be enough to plug the device into a socket for a second or two and then it would be ready for use again.

The clip shows the six-year-old standing in front of his little brother and encouraging him to breathe, making calming gestures to guide the little guide through his mini-crisis.

Though there are still a couple of moments when it seems like things could go either way, the younger boy calms down quite quickly. His big brother puts his arm around him and the tantrum is successfully avoided.

In her tweet, Ashley proudly wrote, "My four year old was about to have a whole tantrum and my 6 year old helped him manage his breathing so he could calm down.... I’d say I’m doing freaking alright."
