Maybe my memory is failing me, though I don't think it is

I just can't remember my childhood being filled with howling hysterics and endless tantrums (though it is true that my sister was responsible for quite a bit of that). Is it really just us or does anyone else have at least one if not two, three, four or five dinners a week that involve one or both children devolving into horrible screaming fits of rage and recriminations?

Well I'm glad to hear that others had that experience. There are nights, when the boys have been reduced to horrible sobbing/screeching messes, where it gets old and I wonder if it's just us.

Definitely not just you guys, though I can see how it would get old. I remember being one of the sobbing/screeching messes at times myself and it was not fun for anyone involved, except maybe the dog, who was able to steal food off the table while we were all distracted.

Our dog just cowers miserably and licks the floor in a corner.
