Echoes of a muted Pain

As experience has proven to me over and over again,  the things our kids do we are the most mad at, our children’s behaviors that trigger the biggest outfits of rage, and we often disguise as good parenting or strict upbringing, are the personal issues we are the most struggling with on an unconscious level.

And here again, anger is pain wearing the coat of despair.

Next time we yell at our most beloved, we might consider taking a minute to recognize and accept this raw pain.
