How do you stay patient with your kids?

Question

I have three kids, aes 12,9, and 6, and some days I feel like I dont have enough patience for them all.

Answer 1

That's a very good score, trust me.

It is mainly about how do they respond to you when you have that off day. If it is just your feeling and they don't notice you may want to plan some more 'me time'.

Answer 2

All you need is patience? With three young kids??? Wow. When mine were that age, I needed help NOT killing them, killing myself, or simply curling up in a corner, and whimpering hopelessly. My baby is 32 now, and my nervous twitch is almost gone. I don't even have an ulcer any more. Blame your Mom. It's probably her fault. My mother used to tell us, "Just wait. Someday you'll have children, and I hope they treat you just as you treat me." Yup, the mothers' curse. And, it worked. My kids treated me as I treated my Mom. But, we got even. We survived. And, We told OUR kids "Just wait. Someday you'll have kids, and I hope they treat you like you treat me." And, it's working. Good luck. You, like every parent in history is fighting to raise kids, keep your sanity, make a living, and find a tiny bit of peace. It doesn't ever work. But, someday your children WILL grow up- And, their kids will treat them just as they treat you. Sweet revenge. Laugh as much as possible. It's better than crying. I truly had such terrible kids, it's amazing that they have managed to produce the world's most beautiful, talented, and sweet grandchildren. And, yours will also.
