[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the moment when I really start to lose it with my kids, I put myself in a time out. I tell them I need a timeout to calm down, shut my bedroom door and count to 20 slowly to cool off. It just gives me a minute of separation from them to pull myself together and stop the yelling. Of course the whole time they are banging on the door, but you learn to just tune them out. [/quote] DP here. Sometimes I get in the shower so I can’t hear the pounding. [/quote]
