[quote=Anonymous]Lately, my husband and I have been arguing or yelling at each other in front of the kids and I feel horrible. 
He grew up witnessing normal behavior with his parents and normal mild arguments. I never saw one argument or heard one raised voice in my life. When dating prior to marriage, I used to break up with all of my exes because we fought/ argued all the time and I thought we were doomed. I used to think the same when I married him and started normal petty arguments until I finally figured it out that I didn't know how to fight or argue or resolve problems within my relationship. 
I want to show my kids that arguing and getting through petty things is fine and will almost become a normal for any relationship but I think our arguing is getting to them.  One stated from the other room that we just argued about that yesterday. The other will come in and push us both together for a family hug and tell us to say our sorry.

I feel like a schmuck.

How much do you let your kids see?
Second posed question. Do you raise your voice to your kids?
I feel like a double schmuck.

When I say fight I mean argue. Never would I condone physical fighting.[/quote]
