I'm a pretty easy going guy, I do complain a lot about little stuff. Traffic, things that don't go my way, ignorant people, etc... but around my child, I try to lead by example but I also know that I am my Dad's son.. and he was always on edge and had a short fuse when my brother and I were growing up and I have always said I wanted to break that. I have had a few times where I have just exploded at my daughter and one of those was last night that involved me trying to comb through her thick hair and getting her ready for bed and we had been around each other all day due to schools being closed yesterday, so I know that didn't help, but I yelled and I broke her hair brush, which was a reaction to her constant complaining and nothing I do is the right way and I just couldn't take it anymore. I realize that I should have stepped away and I certainly wish that I did, because I do not want my daughter to view me the way I viewed my Dad growing up.
