how true this is.... i have heard this time and time again... kids don't do what you TELL THEM to do.. they do what they SEE, they do what YOU DO... so, we have to be careful how we deal with situations around children because like Dr. Phil has said, "You CHANGE A CHILD when you fight in front of them"... you CHANGE the way they will live their lives... so, don't be so ignorant, be adult about situations.. let them be kids while they still are young... they have the rest of their lives to grow up and either FIGHT like you do, or have more PEACE OF MIND and a happier spirit if they grow up in a civil home... they will be more confident in themselves.. happiness breeds happiness... do you know how hard it is not to smile back at someone that is smiling at you? i don't because it is not HUMANLY possible for me NOT to smile back... but i'm sure for some people it's not too hard... life is too short to be angry all the time..
