I think maybe I had to get mad because I'm learning to pay attention to my feelings. And if I hadn't gotten mad then I would have just said OK and let him take advantage of me again. But because I got mad this time, when I finally noticed it was a boundary issue for me, then I said no. And in the future maybe it will be easier for me to recognize boundary issues without getting mad. So that's growth, right?
And it really was a not very good day.
And I'm tired because I just tried to teach 6 first grade boys how to tie their shoes. And I don't think any of them learned. But I did succeed in teaching them all slip knots and square knots, and how to decide when to use each one. And also how to properly untie a knot, which none of them knew before.
