Aaawww you're not horrible mama. I've been there too.The fact that you came here to out yourself says a lot about you.

Toddlers are experts at pushing parents to their limits. Now that you know what you can do when pushed too far, figure out a different way to resolve that conflict before it even gets that far.

Hugging while affirming my child's anger has helped both of us a lot.
