[quote=Anonymous]All of the above advice is sound. Mine is simple- Try a timer- My dh and I each have 5 minutes to "vent" about our day before we change to topic to more positive/ fun things. The kids think it is funny that the grown ups use a timer too. (We use it for chores/ homework with the kids.) Before we did this we didn't really appreciate how much time we spent grousing. If you violate the timer rule, you have to say 3 good things about your day. This won't help if therapy is really needed, but if it is just a reality check it might help change the tone.[/quote]
