[quote=Anonymous]I forced myself to focus on the longer game. Every time I got more upset than I intended it undermined my own parenting goals. That's what I noticed and that is why I worked on changing my own behavior. "I am the grownup, I am the grown up. When his language is irrational or mean, it reflects his own feelings of inadequacy, so I should respond to his need for love and validation and ignore the crap coming out of his mouth"[/quote]
