[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did not mean it. I meant to say that I hate it when he is so stubborn. It happened when I was doing his reading and he was being very difficult. The words slipped out of my mouth and I said, "I hate you". I was sleepy and tired of his behavior. I immediately retracted and said that I meant to say.... Three days later, he wants to know why I said that. Darn it, I can't believe it. DS is 8.[/quote] Did you apologize? You need to do that. Then you need to tell your kid that you said something that you didn't mean because you were angry. Tell your kid that let your temper get away with you and that wasn't right. Tell your kid that even when you are angry with him you love him. Tell him that even when your mouth gets away from you, you love him. The only thing you can do when you screw up as a parent is apologize and model the correct, adult way to handle a screw-up. Good luck, OP.[/quote]
