Hi @Kerry36    What you did is remarkable and I think any Mom should've done that every time a teenager misbehaves. Because sometimes, teens nowadays think that they're old enough to be independent and tend to forget that they're still under your care. And they should be remembered that you're still the boss and mother at the same time and you're just trying to remind her/him that his/her actions were wrong.   Don't forget to let them know what they did that make you do such thing, because sometimes when our children get angry, they don't think, they act.
