I'm more impatient with the kids when I'm alone with them. I'm a lot more patient when my husband is around. It's that good cop, bad cop thing. Mrs. Train on "Are you patient in general?

So there are times when I loose it. Three little three year olds testing their boundaries is often my undoing. MamaMoose on "Are you patient in general?

It's bad. I guess we'll see how I do when LO gets here. lovehoneybee on "Are you patient in general?

But he can sap it quicker than anyone else...when he's being really fussy and nothing I do soothes him. I've had to leave him in a safe place and leave the room and regroup for a few minutes more times than I'd care to admit. autumnlove on "Are you patient in general?

I always considered myself a patient person until I had kids. :) Mrs. High Heels on "Are you patient in general?

Getting out the door in the morning to work requires a heroic effort every day. I do snap, and that's when DH says "uh oh, guys, do what you're told, Mama's mad". :-( erwoo on "Are you patient in general?

I do realize that after having kids I, like you, have tried very hard to be even more patient with my kids, mainly my 3.5 y.o. It's hard sometimes and I have lost it on a number of occasions. :( heffalump on "Are you patient in general?

But I think everyone has their limits, especially with their kids. I just try to take a deep breath when that happens. Usually when I do that, LO will copy me and take a deep breath too, which always makes me giggle :) mrbee on "Are you patient in general?

So maybe I'm not as patient as I thought. Are you patient in general? What about with your child... do you ever find yourself becoming impatient with your LO?
