Well, I did not hit him to punish him. It was a reaction to non-stop pain and panic. I don't hit him ever otherwise. He's bitten her once as well. Not sure why he does it though. It's almost as if he's bored. I will try to work on my reaction. But it's a bit hard since 1. I hope that doesn't happen again, 2. You can't exactly "practice" something like that. It's a human reaction.... Fight or flight... Also, I didn't slam my fist in his back. It was just enough to make him to stop. And no, my W wasn't angry with me prior to his action. In fact we were doing great prior to that. How it goes from my reflex reaction to my S4 that's regrettable to I'm a monster that commit violence to my child in my wife's eyes is puzzling. Just not the type of reaction one'd expect. Sometimes I wonder if she's way over-protective of the kids and see things with filtered goggles.
