[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Screaming and yelling.  Really, OP.  Not acceptable no matter who you are yelling at.  It sound like you both need to grow up and you both need to apologize for behaving inappropriately.  [/quote]

+1. Wow.  Even if she yelled at you first, you always have a choice and you can choose to act like a rational adult.  What a way T behave in front of your children.  You owe the kids an apology so that they understand that you know you were wrong to behave that way.[/quote]

I hope you apologize to your kid for being a judgemental ass.[/quote]

Not gonna do it.  I'm sorry, but I would be mortified with myself if I got into a screaming match with my kids' grandmother in front of them.  And yes, I would apologize to them because it is my job to model behavior and when I make mistakes, I have to be a good model and acknowledge that to them.  Would you be okay with your kids getting into a shouting match with you over a disagreement?  I wouldn't.  Sure, it happens.  But mature people acknowledge their mistakes when they've calmed down.  If I expect to be a good teacher for my kids, I have to walk the walk - including and especially when I have screwed up.[/quote]

Not sure where the assumptions are coming from that OP doesnt feel bad. She posted a vent. A vent is a vent. Ii is not a comprehensive detailed account taking of any and all flaws in the entire process by all individuals involved.

OP doesnt say any of this was OK, just that it happened.

Its the assumptions that are confusing me here.[/quote]
