I find myself questioning if I am a good mom? I find myself doing things(yelling, spanking) and I always said I would never do that to my kids? I try so hard not to swear in front of them but sometimes it just comes out. Any suggestions?

Becoming a mom doesn't change who you are. If you swore before, what makes you think you can stop just for them? If you're a yeller by nature, why should you assume that would just evaporate by being a mom? Read some parenting books or magazines, have some good genuine conversations with moms that you really admire. Learn as much as you can about being the mom you want to be and start practicing it. A little at a time, keep learning, keep working at it!
