I have read one story about this and i edited it to make it short.
Used and Loved:While a man is polishing his new car,his 4 yr old son picked a stone and scratch lines on the side of the car,in anger he took the child's hand and hit it many times,not realizing he was using a wrench.At the Hospital the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures,when the child saw his Father with painful eyes,he said dad when will my fingers grow back?The man was so hurt and speechless,he went back to his car and kicked it a lot of times,devastated by his own actions...sitting in front of that car he looked at the scratches;the child had written LOVE YOU DAD..THE NEXT DAY THAT MAN COMMITTED SUICIDE...Anger and Love has no limits,choose the latter to have a beautiful,lively Life;Things are to be used and people are to be Loved!but the problem in today's world is that,People are used and things are Loved....i was so touched by this story i sometimes scold my child by not touching the things that always used just like my Computer and mobile phone...since then i changed...I think some of you experience this some times...have you?

aww so sad story :( yes i agree with you i think that sometimes parents are a bit too harsh with their children. is like my teacher said before that she had a daughter and she created a space for her so she could paint the walls and had her toys there so children can share their thoughts too. also i agree with what you do now you let your kid touch your cellphone is ok as long as you see what he is doing^^ about people are used yes sometimes people are used and we must not use them.

a number of times..i have scolded my younger sister for wearing my clothes . i stilll remember he time when i have once removed the stitching of my sweater so that she may not wear it...i dont why i did this...but after reading this story i would also try to avoid it ...
it is rightly said anger is on letter away from danger , one is not able to take correct decision in the anger and many a times we have to repent later for all our decision taken in the anger

Yes that is really true,never answer a letter when in Anger, never make a decision when in anger,Control of our emotions sometimes is difficult,that is why we always regret things when its already done, always regret in the end...Just like in the story....we ask forgiveness after the damage is done,well it is good,but forgiveness yes we can, but Forget sometimes it will take time, or sometimes a lifetime....We can forgive but we can't forget easily...Thanks!
