Grow Up!

We all can act childish, its really very easy to find yourself throwing a tantrum like a two year old. Stomping our feet and yelling and tears, refusing to use your words and sometimes it even works... you get your way because lets face it who wants to deal with a grown up acting this way?!?!

BUT and this is a big but,

Tantrums are the way a child acts because they don't have the ability to tell you what they want. As an adult you should know how to speak to someone with respect and still be able to communicate your point... well at least most adults! Another problem with adult tantrums is that the words that are screamed usually cut like a knife and we all know that once the words are out you cant take them back!  

I guess I am not sure where I am heading with all this... Some one very dear to me was hurt and I am at a loss for what happened. Words hurt, PERIOD.  

"So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; fro the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God." James 1: 19-20

Can adults be put in a time-out?
