[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’re a human being- it’s a very healthy response to feel and express anger and fear when someone endangers the life of you and your kids. It’s probably good for him to see you really get pissed and start cursing now and then, so long as it’s not towards him or about something meaningless. To me, this is not just normal but a healthy and appropriate response. [/quote] I agree. We are in this cultural moment when mommies must always be calm no matter what or we are damaging our kids. How is it healthy for kids to have a parent who only demonstrates one emotional register? It is perfectly appropriate to feel angry or sad sometimes and let those feelings show. I think in 20 years we will look back on this time and think we were all really misguided. Showing a normal range of emotions is not the same as shaming or screaming at your child.[/quote]
