   Just breathe deeply and count to 5 (or 10). I don't have a child but I have a short temper as well. It always helps me if I think about it first and try to calm myself down.

   Trying walking out of the room for a few seconds so that you can calm down. I hope that this helps.

   Oh, girl!!! you need to get a sitter and go to the mall by yourself for a little while.

   Are you angry with her father? that is usually why we strike out at those who are more defenseless like our babies. Figure out why you are so angry and do something about that and you will quit being so angry with the baby.

   You can also get a pillow and bite it!! I mean that literally!! Just chew the stuffin out of a pillow when you think about shouting at the baby. Then go correct her nicely.

   Delfina, breathing excersises..
   When you start to feel your blood pressure go up, count to 10…. breathe through the nose and out of the mouth. This serves 2 purposes… 1. It makes you concentrate on breathing and not what youre upset about and 2. It slows the heart rate down thus calming you down.

   Take a deep breath. Calm down, then calmly tell your daughter that she needs to behave. Take it from me, 5 year olds are HARD. I have a 5 year old brother &he just kills me sometimes. If you have shouted at your daughter for no particular reason &she gets upset, take her aside and explain to her that you did something wrong also. Tell her that you can get through this together. If she's good, then you won't shout and lose your temper. If this is a serious problem, I would see a doctor, but for now just talk to your daughter and work on calming down.

   Good Luck!,

   I really don't know exactly but please get help. Your child does not deserve to be abused by you in any way. I see lots of parents out in public just ragging on their children and it really breaks my heart. KIDS ARE JUST THAT AND THEY WILL ACT LIKE KIDS. Try loving on them and see how much better they listen. A child will get attention either in a positive or negative way. Acting out is a cry for attention. My opinion.

   I think you just have a lot of stress. You don't mean to be angry at her, you just hold everything in and it pops out all at once. Here are some parenting things you might want to try:
   1) Make a set of VERY DESCRIPTIVE rules for your child.
   2) Whenever she says,"I don't know." remember how many times you said that to your parents when you were young.
   3) Make suitable punishments for your child when she beaks the rules.

   These will help with parenting. But for your temper, I think you just need to be happier. Here are some ways to stay in a good mood:
   Stop watching TV. It increases your happiness level 70-90%
   Listen to good music, like love songs that you like.
   Laugh easily. Not only does laughing make you notice how unusually happy us humans can get, but it also can increase your life by 8 years. Yeah, I know, it's really cool!! =)
   And last, but certainly not least: whenever you put a question or answer on yahoo answers, put a smily somewhere in it.

   Hope this helps!!! =)
