*no, but you missed the part about her being your equal...
You missed the part about being a bully...

*I honestly think you do, which is why I still talk to you.
One last thot...my kids sometime suss me pretty bad.
Do I wash their mouths out w/soap?
Do I banish them from my house?
Do I hit them?

No.

I TALK to them.
I tell them I love them no matter what.
I tell them it hurts me when they talk to me like that.
Yeah, sometimes I blow and yell, but I apologize to them.
But I DO NOT make them feel like they so horrible that they must be banished :( ostracized cuz they so horrible and bad.
I am being slightly triggered.
I will go now.
