    I don’t get angry when people make mistakes.

    I get angry when people make the same mistake every time despite being told/shown how to do it properly.

    At that point is either blatant incompetence or it’s on purpose.

      Yup. And we are all human, but what if it were a choice to be angry or to be effective? I’m not proposing anything like not disciplining your kids, as some people choose, just… to be mindful of a teachable moment.

      Also, being told/shown something vs. truly knowing it are different things - some people receive more readily visual or auditory or tactile cues.

      Anyway, it’s your life to do as you please. But there are ways that are easier, and more fulfilling in the long run.
