[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 141049, member: 3626"] Let's see, you let her have fun. Then she pushed. Then she pushed some more. And, to top it off, she pushed even more. You didn't beat her. You didn't make her bleed (did you?). You probably shocked her more than hurt her. I know how awful it feels to hit your child. I doubt there are many, if any, here who don't know exactly how you feel. We forgive our children if they hit us, hurt us, steal from us, whatever they do, we forgive. We also need to learn to forgive ourselves for daring to be human. BBK, give yourself a break. You really are doing a great job in raising your child. If you have any doubts, look at the dress she was wearing today and the sacrifices and pain you went through so she have a special day. That, my dear, is a wonderful mother! You did that through all of your hurt. Today is a very minor glitch. She'll remember the dress and the dance, the odds are she won't remember the pop. As to your conversation while you were typing, suggest you phrase it a little differently if it ever comes up. Not that you're trying to not be a bad mom -- for you, that would be impossible, anyway -- but that you're trying to be the best mom you can be just like Tink is trying to be the best little girl she can be. Unfortunately for both of you, your humanness gets in the way of being perfect. All either of you can ask is to be the best you can be. BBK, YOU ARE AWESOME!!!! [/QUOTE]
