What are some emotions you feel when you’re frustrated with your kids? Like they dont stop crying for no reason. I feel like such a bad mom for feeling anger towards them and other negative emotions. Am i the only one? ☹️

I feel angry a lot, I have a lot of anger issues stemming from my child hood and how I was raised so I have to try very hard to keep my temper under control. That’s one of the main reasons I am hugely into peaceful parenting because I am worried if I were to start spanking or swatting my kids it will just escalate like it did for my parents. I usually immediately feel guilty for even getting angry at him because I know he doesn’t understand the things he does a lot of the time or when he screams and throws a fit, especially in public, I have to remind myself that that is the only way he knows how to express his own anger and frustrations at this age. I have to talk to myself a lot and remind myself that his little brain gets easily overwhelmed and he can’t process even simple emotions sometimes.
Yesss girl i know that and i try my very best everyday too and i read books about how to be a better parent and understand their brains but this whole week i had so much anxiety and today i just couldnt do it anymore i broke down 😞
No you’re not the only one. But I moreso feel sad and helpless that they feel the way they do. I’m sure crying nonstop is no fun for our babies 🙁 the anger I feel is more like irritation, usually hormones or other circumstances like maybe their Dad isn’t helping when he could be or maybe I have to use the bathroom or have food on the stove so I can’t keep running back and forth but also can’t have the baby with me at the stove. Never anger directly towards my children. If that’s how you feel, and it’s totally normal to feel this way after having kids, maybe you should talk to someone? It’s really nothing to be ashamed about as long as you seek help. It’s so hard to be a mom sometimes. A lot of people suffer from post partum depression and don’t get help and end up making it worse. Again, nothing to be ashamed of.. hormones are a tricky thing and life is hard! I hope things get better for you✨
Thanks. I feel more like you do like when i have to do simple things and i cant because theyre fussy or right now that she was crying so much and anything i did didnt help. I felt extremely frustrated with the situation and with her because even looking at her made her cry like whattt?? 😩
@emila221, all I can say is hold her close, “shhhhhh” her, and tell her everything is going to be ok, “mommy’s got you baby”, etc. That unconditional love and comfort only Mom can offer can fix just about anything. As long as you’re sure nothing else is wrong of course. It’s so hard, I know. Mom takes care of everyone, no one takes care of Mom.
No hun no your not the only one sometimes I feel like I’m going to have a mental breakdown xx
I get so frustrated and angry and sad. I do everything in my power not to show it though. I try to remain calm because fighting fire with fire isn’t effective. I’m only human though.
