[quote=Anonymous]Keep the advice coming on how to tamp down the rage please. I come from a family that didn't yell too much but was perfectionist. Even at my age I still feel the pressure from them to be more attractive, more successful, smarter, etc. and given that I usually feel I am failing at those things most days with young children at home, I find this anger coming out at the kids. It's like, in my mind sometimes when I'm really tired or overwhelmed, that if only I were smarter or better or whatever, the kids wouldn't be acting out or not paying attention or whatever. So I get inappropriately angry sometimes because I feel like all of us now have to live up to my perfectionist family's impossible expectations.[/quote]
