Yelling: The Hurt & Hope When We Lose Our Temper #072

Parenting can be stressful, and we can all lose our temper. And, yelling can be hurtful for our kids. So, how do we manage our feelings and care for our children well (knowing we are going to mess up sometime).

This episode is an encouragement for each of us to love our children with gentleness as best we can AND to seek reconciliation when we fail (which we all do).


The Stat of the Week has too long a name (The Forgiving Family: Effects of a Parent-led Forgiveness Program on Mental and Relational Health), but it is a wonderful reminder that when we teach our kids important things we are actually the ones who learn and grow. For more science, here is the article on yelling (that is, "parental harsh verbal discipline") that inspired this episode.
