In my family, we never argued. In my husband's family, they screamed and shouted. And then they made up. But I don't do conflict, or don't do it well. So we have a lot of arguments about how to have arguments and that's been much more true since our son was born.
I feel my husband should never lose control or show anger around our child. He thinks our son will learn how to work out problems rather than ignoring them. I just want to leave when I hear the shouts and that makes things worse. I don't have an answer to this one. Does anyone else? We never really had a lot to fight about before. Now it seems we do.
