Sometimes I get out of hand. Yesterday, my son drove me outside of my comfortable zone. I had it. I had to do something. But I went over board. I yelled and took them by force. Not a lot but enough for them to feel uncomfortable.
It was a necessary overreaction. Victor seems to be the one instigating these scenarios. I am losing patience with him as well. But he’s a good boy. He’s going to get better, I know it. I know it because he acts like me in a lot of ways.
It is really hard to find a way where they will respect us and do what we ask of them. We’re trying to raise them so they are independent, mature and accomplish what they want. We are going to do our best.
