Screaming Is Just Code For "Calm Me Down!"

No matter what words are actually coming out of our mouths, no matter how long our tirade is, no matter how old our children are, when we scream, the message always the same: CALM ME DOWN! 

We are saying that we just cannot handle the fact they will not obey or listen or calm down.  We cannot handle this, so we flip out.

Pg 32
