One of my proudest parenting moments: my 9 yo was crying around noon, I was trying to comfort him and he slapped me in the face with anger. “Are you slapping me because you’re hungry?” “Yeah” “You want a banana?” “Yeah”

Would you explain why this makes you proud?

I assume as the kid is showing a good grasp on identifying his emotions.

I can guess they are proud because they were slapped in the face but didn't react in anger.

And the baby was 9 months old (I got myself wrong) and I thought we had solved the violent tantrum phase
