To me the key skill is to “act angry” while at the meantime suppressing any actual anger. I think it’s important to demonstrate to children what society expects of them and how people respond to bad behaviour but at the same time I believe one should never “act out one’s anger” as that can lead to a loss of control. I always tell myself they’re “just kids” while at the same time reminding myself I owe it to them to role play the situation. It seems to me a very easy thing to do but I know many people who simply don’t get it at all so I must be lucky I guess.
