[quote=Anonymous]“You don’t have like what I’m doing/what’s for dinner/fill in the blank, but you don’t get to be rude. If you choose to respond again in that way, the phone is gone for the rest of the week.” “It looks like you need some space to work through this. I’m going about my business downstairs.” “You can one have snack here in the kitchen and then that’s it.” (my kids are not allowed to take food out of the kitchen/eating area. No eating in bedrooms or tv watching area in basement) Dinner is in an hour.” “I’m going to step out of this conversation right now because I need a break. I’ll be available to talk when you’re calm and not yelling.” Then walk away without any more engagement. —mom of a 12 year old girl. Just trying to stay calm and not engage in the crazy. [/quote]
