What kind of mother are you?

I came across this article on facebook from my Aunt who had linked to it. Honestly I don't know what to say. First of all, I liked the article. My problem with it is that it was a gigantic mirror facing me showing me my reactive style of parenting. As I read the article, I was trying to justify every reactive choice I made and after a while I realized, man something has got to change/give. So no matter how many times Mary needs me for something, I'll put the computer down. When Rachael raises her voice I will not raise mine.

Deliberate vs. "Default" Parenting
