I feel such a failure. Everyone thinks I am such a fantastic mother and someone they all aspire to be, but in reality I feel I am beside myself.I have two daughters who are 7 and 9 and I adore them but I feel like we are all destroying each other. We bicker constantly with each other and it's really getting me down. I feel like I am in a tunnel spiraling out of control. They talk to me like dirt and in turn I shout at them and get so frustrated. My husband is wonderful, but when we are all together the bickering does not stop and we all fall out. I am lost at how to punish my daughters when they speak to me badly and answer me back. They push me to the limit until I shout at them and am then wracked with guilt. I would never hurt them physically. I had abdominal surgery on the 25th July and am exhausted physically and mentally.If you knew me you wouldn't believe what I am saying as everyone thinks I am as strong as an ox and am the backbone of the family.How can we break this cycle? Please help.
