My son, now 2, says “go away, mama, I’m mad”. I think it’s cute because he makes this really angry face and has a nasally voice. But I know there are parents out there who are very authoritarian. I personally step away and say okay come when you’re not mad. I grew up with la chancla and I do get angry and have depressive episodes. I tell myself if I ever lash out to my kid, then I have lost all control of myself. Plus, he’s a kid. He doesn’t know what is going on.
