To those who have more than one children or more. Do you notice than you get louder with every child? When I have my 1st only, I almost never raise my voice at her. When I have my 2nd girl, occasionally, I scream and shout. Now with the 3rd one, I scream and shout almost everyday and my 1st girl are picking that up from me and raise her voice at me. 
I need to learn to have more patience and more self-control.
My lady boss was chatting with me just now. The same scenario at her home too! She told me before she got married, she is very soft spoken but now, she’s the screaming lady and her children too always scream back at them. Can’t blame the children. We, the parents are the guilty one.
Now, I must constantly remind myself to have self-control and speak softly and gently with my children.
Stumble it!
Hi, I really enjoyed reading your blog. Was wondering if you
would like to add it to my directory? http://www.weblog-index.com
Thanks, Shelly
Yah… I’m beginning too. Just that sometimes raise voice already feel soooooo bad about it, coz if we stop to think for a while, they’re still so small. Specially Ivan, he’s only 2+ but he acts like an Ah Pek, so sometimes talk to him also treat him like big boy :S Keep telling myself not to shout at him nowadays…
Oh, maybe that happens to me too. *Blush*
I’m updating your blog URL. If you see any error, let me know ya?
sometimes i worried that we cannot undo the things that we have done. they already registred them in the mind. how ah?
I’m really wary of having my own family! Sounds like you’ll turn into a monster. When I see the mums shouting or hitting the kids outside, I always warn myself not to become like one of them.
