The wather is finally warming up. With the warm weather, inevitably comes heated tempers and irritablility! I, for one, am an expert on tempers. My four year old Abbigayle and I have attitudes that clash on a daily basis. At four years old, her temper is a force to be reconed with!! As is mine.
It is a constant battle as well as a constant learning situation for me. How will I ever teach her to hold her temper if I can't even set a proper example?? I am continuously reading magazine articles and self help books on the topic, to no avail as of yet. 'It's a process' is what I keep telling myself...and I am always open to suggestion! Does anyone have any??
Oh, I feel your pain! My 6 year old daughter is as strong-willed as I am. I love her with all my heart, but I always feel like I run the risk of gaining the upper hand only to find that I have broken her spirit. It's tough being a mom sometimes. Know that you are not alone in your battles! I find that sometimes I have to just take a step back and let her dad try and talk some sense into her! I'm sure her dad wishes he could talk some sense into me sometimes!! Lol!!
