Getting cross with your kids

Just a short post. I’m blogging on the bus on my iPhone. When the kids are cross or are whining and you respond by getting cross and whining…isn’t that a bit ridiculous? It’s even more ridiculous when they’re cranky because they’re tired and then you get extra cranky because you’re tired too!

When we’re feeling angry and we react at them because of how we’re feeling I guess that they’re feeling exactly the same way, which is why they’re misbehaving.

How can I expect my child to change a behaviour that I’m reflecting at them. Parenting has to be more thoughtful than this.

Oh, and by the way. I’m proud of my little man – check out his new blog harleylucas.com
