The other day I had my twin toddlers with me on some errands after work. It had been a long day for all of us and they had not gotten a nap while at the babysitter. One of the girls was being completely unreasonable, throwing tantrums over some of the most ridiculous things. As I felt myself beginning to lose patience, my mind flashed back to some of the advice I’d read about in this book. I quickly change my mindset and redirected my actions so that I was responding to my child instead of reacting.
