Question Posted Saturday November 12 2005, 11:22 am
Alright my family has a really hard time with fighting. When i was little it would get so bad it would become physical. Just a fiew nights ago it became physical again but thats beside the point. I was wondering if you guys had any tips on how I could keep my temper down towards my parents.. Is there anything I could do to control it?

I have a horrible issue with that. I am soo bad to my parents and i realize it too..(fyi..u no incase it makes you feel better that somebody is going through the exact same thing as you)..you just have to leave the room if you get really angry...let yourself calm down..and then try and talk out whatever your problem is. Thats what i do usually...but of course..it doesn't work 100%...

Physical fighting in your own home is the main cause why you have this uncontrolable temper. You probably can't control the fighting of your family because that's how they behave, but you can try and lessen it and calm them down. You've got to teach them though because it seems that they can't fight without being physical and that's horrible because you're not finding a solution to the problem. Get it thorugh them that they can't solve a problem without using their hands. If a problem comes up, instead of them all bickering at once, they can take time one-by-one and tell their side of the story. Therfore, you guys can reach concensus, in which you guys form 1 agreement, about how to solve the problem. Also, whenever a fight comes up or someone gets angered, that person or persons can seperate from eachother and just go outside and get some fresh air for a while. It will help them calm down and clear their head of negative thoughts. Make sure that no one goes to bed mad. Squash the situation first, because then they'll feel relieved and can have a good nights sleep. This is not impossible. This can work if everyone has the drive to participate...you just have to store it into them I hope that everything works out for you and your family and I hope I helped!

What I do, bite your tongue, close your eyes and remember how it is NOT worth it to yell back. pinch your hand, make yourself hurt somewhere and your attention will be focused on that rather then your anger towards your parents. Just keep telling yourself ITS NOT WORTH IT, theyll hit you or ground you and that SUCKS.. good lucck!!! [ Melaur1001's advice column | Ask Melaur1001 A Question ]
