And I can understand what you must have felt, once I smacked my sister for something very random and she didn't cry only looked on. I still get welled up remembering that time.

Good to know that we have blogged on similar stuff, and I can't tell you how much head nodding was happening when I read your post! Water on the bed .. Yikes!!! I would have reacted so similarly :(. With a lot of practice, I now stop, take deep breaths and try to ask questions instead of yelling. The spanking bit I have got "mostly" under control, mainly because it was substituted by yelling :P.Aparnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06829120477564667304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34403038.post-57333268877925052182014-01-15T13:45:29.287+05:302014-01-15T13:45:29.287+05:30Jyothisdayout: omg I hadn't even begun to thin...Jyothisdayout: omg I hadn't even begun to think of teenage..

My niece and my nephews can vouch for the sweet aunty of theirs. Ever smiling, ever happy. Then, like you said, kids happened!<br /><br />My second was born when my first was a year and a half. And I had no help at home. So you can imagine how much my temper would have been tested. I guess at some point we learn to control the anger. <br /><br />I have two teenagers now. Anger has taken a completely new turn. Now I just choose to ignore things that make me angry. Listen to music with my headphones on or go for a walk. :)<br /><br />The first step to changing is knowing that something is wrong. So don't worry, you will get there. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34403038.post-83897360924465038172014-01-15T01:28:16.900+05:302014-01-15T01:28:16.900+05:30I think the most important point is that you have ...I think the most important point is that you have recognized that you tend to get built-up anger and that you've done something to try to release it in positive ways.

But..that swat of the butt was deserved and you meant to correct them and did. It is not that there is no remorse afterwards, because I find there always is..BUT sometimes you have to lay down the law and let them know what is acceptable and what is not. In the long run, they end up better for it. Yoga probably helps loads. It helps me to count and walk away.
