Hang in there Tmbsgrl.... this may sound crazy, but somebody taught me once, that when you are challenged by your kids, stop and say in your head 3 times silently "I am the parent and I am in charge!!" and suddenly you will feel invincible and nothing they can do will get you rattled. You will stay calm and follow through w/ whatever discipline may call!! It has helped me many times. I have found myself arguing w/ my 8 or 5 yr old many times and suddenly asked myself, "what the hell am i doing?? The answer is no..." and then I repeat my mantra and I relax!
