Your anger may have negative effects on your child. Anger management is an important aspect which mothers need to take care of when it comes to raising children. Here are some helpful tips just for you to make your anger management regime easier. Read on to know more about it.



At the outset, we need to get this clear that giving vent to our emotions through anger is very normal.

On an average, mothers are found to spend over thirteen hours in household chores and if she is working, the same amount of time is spent on office work.

She changes around 7,300 diapers by the time her baby is two years old! For a preschooler, the mother needs to attend her child at least once in every four minutes or 210 times every day! She spends 2.7 hours/day on primary childcare in comparison to 1.7 hours/day, spent by dads. Above all, 88% of the laundries are done by moms. She also needs to multitask like speaking over phone, watching television, drinking coffee, eating and/or balancing the checkbook.  Well, all these data are sufficient to infer that mothers do require keeping their cool even at the most tiring of the situations because, without her, the household would simply collapse!
