I feel like it's too much and that our daughter tunes out the majority of it. That's why I want to take the challenge - I still snap and I'm still stern and if her safety or her brother's safety were on the line I'd scream like hell... and hair cutting would probably set my challenge back to day zero. :) Like you said - the times I snap are usually when I'm tired or when I have a long day at work - but that means that I'm snapping because of ME not because of their behavior, which is what I want to prevent from happening.

You have a great point about four being the age when they really start to notice how you do things and handle things. I yell too often but I have to disagree with you a little on the never yelling. First I guess it depends what you consider yelling. The times when I snap because I'm tired and impatient I need to stop but I feel when she does something such as cutting her sister s hair like mine did, yelling and freaking out got my huge disappointment in her across. It broke her little heart that I was so upset with her and I'm confident she will never do it again. I guess there s a time and place for it but it loses its discipline factor if we are constantly yelling. My husband rarely yells at the girls but they know if he raises his voice they better get their behavior together. <br />Stepping into Motherhoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16278159650113398512noreply@blogger.com
