Given the circumstances, it sounds like you handled yourself fairly well. We all falter every now and again, especially when put in a situation such as that. She's obviously full of anger. Don't try to understand it. Just validate it, listen, and keep your focus on yourself. It sucks about the kids hearing, but all you can do is try to be a role model to them and demonstrate that responding angrily to angriness doesn't help anything. Work on controlling your own emotions. The fact that a comment from her can get you pissed off is a big problem. Work on your detachment so that that doesn't happen because I guarantee you, you'll be put in many similar situations. Chin up!
