I lost my patience with her this morning and yelled at her. She was reading her read up book and it’s below her reading level so I know she can read it but she has these days she just gives up on herself if she doesn’t know one word. I kept going over the word with her and she just kept mumbling and we were going to be late if we didn’t hurry and she wanted to read so she could take a test and just yelled at her that she needed to stop giving up and if she doesn’t want to read it she’d have to take her test tomorrow. She has issues they tell me it’s ADHD and possible anxiety and will shut down if she gets yelled at or gets overwhelmed and so I try to keep things calm in the mornings so that she doesn’t shut down at school. I tried to calm her down and it didn’t help. She got out the car looking like she was about to start crying again. Our schedule is so crazy that I can’t really take my meds so my anxiety and depression have been so bad and I’ve been on edge but that’s no excuse.

my mom was an angry monster.. when she was around. I swore I’d never be like her but sometimes I fail too. We are only human mama.
Take a breather and talk to her about it later when you see her. Apologize for losing your patience and let her know it was wrong for you to react the way you did and you’re sorry. Remind her nothing will ever change your love for her but that mommy has bad days too.
It’s gonna be ok

@lorrinleigh, I definitely want better for them it messed me up a lot. Especially since she already seems to have a little anxiety I don’t want to make it any worst.

thanks. I feel so bad but once she gets home I’m going to have a talk with her.

Definitely talk to her. Apologies are always great to teach our kids. It happens. As long as we break the cycle everything will be ok. Take a breath. Walk away whatever you have to do. They will only be that age for a very short period of time. Enjoy it while you can. You got this💜♥️

Thanks. I’ve been having such a hard time lately and I could feel it boiling over and I think I got a lot more frustrated then I needed to. Especially before she went to school
