I think you're probably right with this. Man, this is becoming a serious issue with me, isn't it?
So many parenting things cause me blind rage. But at their core, they're probably the right thing to do -- it's just the immense lack of respect when they're executed that ends up pissing me off. Except I end up blaming the surface action instead?

Yeah, that's why I'm trying to figure this shit out. If have insecurities, I need to figure out what they are and get over them so I can do this stuff the right way (whatever that is).
