Aww, sweetie, I don't know if that's a codependency thing or just a human thing! We all blow at times and yes, we seem to do it at our kids when they least deserve it. At my weekly meeting on Friday, the topic of projection came up and many folks shared about how they projected their anger onto their kids. One woman said that the biggest lesson she learned in Al Anon is to take responsibility for our actions and to make amends, if needed. Kids bounce back quickly and take our apologies well, so I'm sure your daughter will forgive your outburst and will just love hearing about how much you love her at the end of the day. HUGS!
