[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 135132, member: 3626"] I just would tell mine that when she was ready to ask, I was available but, for now, maybe it would be better if she left the kitchen until she calmed down. Wouldn't want something to break and cut her. But no way would I ask her how she could make it better when in frustration mode. As I said, I'd be pretty mad if someone did that to me at that time. As to the "I can'Tourette's Syndrome," I wouldn't argue with mine when she got in that mode. I'd suggest she take a break for a few minutes. When I saw that she had lost a level or two of frustration, I would try to help her get on track and give her any tricks I knew. If I know she can, then she gets THE look without anything being said. (She hates THE look!) (THE look is the one that says I know you can do it, you know you can do it and don't push me to prove you can do it.) But I stand firm that no way are you going to get her to listen when you ask me how I could have handled it better. I'm just going to get mad and have a very stiff rod up my you-know-what. [/QUOTE]
