How about massage therapy? Swimming? long relaxing soaks in hot tubs?
I thought that the "release the anger" by expressing it was no longer supported because it is learned behavior. That enforseing the pattern of acting out teaches doing that. Anger is a symulation and if their is bi polar in the house the manic is so enthusiastic about high stym...where is a child going to learn to relax and let the intensity of emotions wash through without learning the releif of relaxation?
Anger is a intense emotional state and it seems to me that when we as adults are
pretending it is "controlable" what we really mean is that when we ourselves are angery it takes time to sort out and all we REALLy need to know about anger is it is human, real and the person feeling angery needs attention...and to relax.
In my mind anger is the "out of control" condition where learning to take and be in time out is a life long skill.
I slammed doors ...I am a identified former door slammer, I quess I should put that in my intro. Oh oh oh...RECovered door slammer. I actually used door slamming in
a piece about anger once...and, Moms and Dads there is a God with a sence of humor because the door I had to used was on that self closing not to slam type and I had to really put out some energy to get a bang out of it.
My point is when kids are out of control it is the scaariest place on earth for them....how do we as parents make a home where there is peace?
