Spicy words? Uncontrolled tongues? What do you do when Mom is the one to lose control of her mouth and damages the ones she loves with sharp words? One of our faithful HIRLers called in asking us to answer these questions, so we dove right in.
Join us as we open up about our own struggles with losing our temper with our kids. What do we do when we lose control of our mouth and unleashes on those around us. This is a transparent episode about a difficult topic we have not conquered in our own home. Join us!

Thank you so much for answering that question in such a real and down to earth way. It feels a little better knowing I am not alone in this struggle. God bless you!
Dayanis, you are not alone! Let’s keep looking to Him and praying that the Holy Spirit will change us both. -Kendra
Hehe… Yes! You are so right! What consoles me is knowing that He knows our hearts. We just have to put our hearts where our mouth is.

You are welcome Dayanis! Thanks for sending in the idea!
Thanks for sharing this. It’s interesting to hear you say that even after 22 years you still struggle with this. I keep asking myself how my kids are supposed to respond differently if I can’t even respond more kindly. I like the 5 push ups idea. I try similar things from time to time, but I don’t have the staying power to do it consistently and thus see any fruit. It helps to know I’m not alone.
Thanks Kelly! Glad this episode helped! – Fletch
