A Flash Of Temper

Odi and Ailz cut Fabi's hair yesterday and he was screaming all the way through and then Odi took this little brush and was brushing the cut hair off him and he was screaming some more and so I asked her, please, to stop and she went on brushing and he went on screaming and I may have asked her again (I don't really remember) and she went on brushing and he went on screaming so I took the brush out of her hand and threw it across the room.

Sometimes you do need a firm hand (verbally speaking).

I don't like to lose control- which is what I did.

When I lose control I throw things.

How did Odi take it?

She and Ailz told me off.

But she stopped brushing. :)

They'll never get you trained at this rate.

Yeah, that's me. 'Ard as they come.

Swearing works (for me at least).

I cant stand kids' screaming, either, especially when it can be stopped. There's something about screaming that does something terrible inside my head. I am with you on this one. You asked, nobody listened. What more can I say? Oh, yeah, if that's the worst thing you do when you lose control, then you are a gentle man.

Somewhere down the line I discovered throwing things works for me. It disperses the anger and no-one gets hurt. Then I laugh at myself.

All little boys scream when they have their hair cut. You could have gone out of the room - it needed doing!

You behave like a kid yourself when I do yours. You wriggle and shuffle around and tell me you've had enough. In fact that's why I cut your hair - you won't go to the barbers. Why not post a picture of you when getting your haircut was just too much trouble!!
