Troy and I both have fairly long fuses and yet our boys snap emotionally like twigs at the slightest provocation using taboo phrases guaranteed to get a rise out of their peace loving parents.

I often feel I have no concept how to get through to Emily, and since beatings aren't appropriate, and consequences seem to always be faced by me rather than the kids (if they're late to school, who pays?
