So, I have this horrible confession to make... I have anger issues. I am trying so hard to work on my anger issues, but the harder I try the angrier I seem to get. Or at least, the more my anger suddenly errupts without any warning on others around me - usually my children.
I'm not really sure what to do next. Books - yes. Therapy - possibly. Friends - certainly. Apologize - most definitely.

Hi Lynn,
It is comforting to have you say this....it is one of the most difficult things I struggle with while being a mom. I feel it is my huge flaw as a mother that I let my anger take control of me. Knowing I am not the only one sure helps. I think it is good that we admit it's a problem and try to work on it...but oh, that is the hardest part - changing!

Holly -
I'm glad you understand without condemning me. I feel like SUCH a bad mom when it all goes down. :( And my kids are so great - they are really forgiving and they know I love them. But how can I expect them to become self-controlled in their anger without being a good role model for them? Sigh. I'm trying. I'm really, really trying.
