I heard that over and over again...and yet, words can definitely harm. I still remember words spoken to me in anger when I was a child. Hurtful words. It's good to call everyone out on how to communicate in a respectful manner. Shawnelle, as always, I'm impressed with how you take a situation and create a teachable moment to share with your boys.Sharon Drach Mangashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12528434556469127636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165957406093577147.post-80581953176030459262012-09-28T07:33:20.425-05:002012-09-28T07:33:20.425-05:00I completely understand, Kathy.
