When we show plenty of affection and approval to a child, we can get away with occasional displays of displeasure and anger. We are, after all, human and we do, after all, feel real irritation from time to time as we go through our parenting day. Nonetheless, we will want to express less negativity than we feel because this young person - as challenging as he or she may currently be - is growing into a person who may one day be one of the truest, closest, most loving friends that we will ever have. The love we show now nurtures this potential lifelong friendship. Keep the future in mind when you correct and guide your child today.
