Managing Anger for Parents Workshop

Do you tend to lose your cool often? Are you irritated easily? Do you tend to feel guilty blowing your top at others, especially your children, after you have calmed down? Many parents have felt afraid, guilty and even ashamed of the way in which they have expressed their anger towards their children.

Anger is a normal yet powerful emotion that is triggered when we feel threatened. Anger in itself is not a bad emotion. In fact, anger at times can be good because it generates in us the energy needed to protect us from a perceived threat. HOWEVER, it becomes an issue when it is expressed in unhealthy or destructive ways and it is of great concern if the expression of anger results in injuries, or worse, deaths.
