Quotes to ponder:
"It's never appropriate to dump anger on another person, in front of your kids or not."
"If we handle our disagreements with respect and good will, looking for solutions instead of blame, children will recover."
"Anyone can get angry, but we can take responsibility for our own emotions, apologize, and re-connect."
