Dare to Discipline..

Out of frustration one afternoon (I think I posted about) the day Caleb spent half the day in time out (so it felt) I decided I needed to do some reading/get advice outside of my own little realm of knowledge on how to discipline and handle my boys.  I feel like a lost cause in public and that I am the mother people look at and think "she is a terrible mother, with out of control children." So on Monday Brad and I had our date night without the kids and went to Barnes and Noble so I could look at some books. I had asked around a little and talked to a friend who gave me some suggestions.

So here is where I ended up. I didn't want to purchase all these books, I am sure the $100.00 or so would be well spent, but I decided I would see if the library had them. They did have them and I have been reading and taking notes. I just need some new avenues to be able to handle my boys in a positive and constructive way. I am just easily frustrated and quick to anger for silly things and want to be able to know how to discipline without that coming out in myself. Kids learn from what they are taught and I dont want my boys to be easily frustrated and get angry quickly. So I have started with Dare to Discipline and I am very pleased with it thus far. I feel like I will be able to get some things under control before #3 arrives.
