There seems to be a pattern in everyone's responses- when a child rages and we do not show support/concern/empathy for what they are dealing with, the rages get worse or last longer.
I know when I am a total b*tch during PMS. When I get "like that", it just makes me more upset when my husband leaves the room and acts bothered by me rather than reaching out to hug me or at least say something like, "I'm sorry you're having a rough day." I don't like rejection, and I guess these kids during their rages have trouble not only dealing with the junk that makes them rage, but then to be loaded down with rejection from us on top of it must be hell.
