    SCRIPT:

    If you have teens in the house, I guarantee there will be times when they will stir up anger. 

    Police officers are trained to never lose their cool.  It does no good for a traffic cop to get angry with a speeder.  Doing so will only incite anger in return, and the officer will lose his position of authority. Instead, a ticket is calmly written and the speeder is sent on his way, kicking himself for the fine he’ll have to pay.

    The next time you feel anger with your teen for breaking the rules, think of the traffic cop.  Keep calm and apply the consequences, which will serve to make the teen angry at himself, not you, for the fine he’ll have to pay.
