[quote=Anonymous]So, I may be in the minority here, but I would watch closely and if it seems necessary, do family therapy. Our family went through something similar when I was very young (six turning seven). We were moving and my dad moved before the rest of us, so my mom was alone with three kids for half a year. My mom was awful for about six months - yelled all the time, slammed doors, was downright mean, occasional slap, etc. Even though it ended after we moved, it set the stage for my relationship with her for the rest of my life, and I’ve never felt close to her. I also remember all of it. It seemed to have no impact on my siblings, though most of her ire was directed at me (the youngest). So, just watch your kids, and don’t hesitate to go to therapy with them if needed. If you have acknowledged what you did and apologized, that will be a big help. [/quote]
