Also – though I am now (shock, horror) 39 years old, I have memories of feeling like Alicia. And at times, since my parents live so close, still feel that way toward my 67 year old mother… who I still see as controlling. My “baggage from [my] own childhood” is that there are times I still respond to her very much like a rebellious teenager. I somehow need to forgive her (which is something that I have to do and re-do, often daily). And, then the bigger step… I need to change my reaction to her and try to think of her statements and inquiries as helpful concern rather than disapproving and controlling.

I’d love to see more posts about trusting oneself as a parent.

However, patience does mean being calm enough to do the right thing!  This post talks a bit about that:  http://theparentingpassageway.com/2009/11/14/how-not-to-be-the-angry-parent/ [...]

Hi, Your post was good and very soothing at the end. I am trying to find ways to deal with my anger which is more of a flash anger thing but I usually send my child to his room. He is 9 and is just a slob and I try to be consistent and tell him to pick this or that up or even tell him to stop what he is doing and come and put the dropped cheese wrappers on the living room floor in the garbage….. but there are times when it just gets to me. …..But someone told me once that if you walk out the door .. the child might think you are leaving them and (inside think you are abandoning them)(and what if someone got hurt inside when you were outside?)
I watch the Nanny and I try to be consistent with the discipline but he is just oblivious so many times….but I do need to get this under control. (I never hit but I sure can yell)
Thanks D
