Has anybody done this before? I'm mobile so I didn't do a search before posting but I thought if anyone is interested in starting this, we could create a thread here to help each other out.

This is the link with the details and any other info: http://theorangerhino.com/the-challenge-details/

Basically, this is a challenge to stop yelling at your kids. I have a 23 month old and I also have a low frustration tolerance, and it seems she is starting to copy my angry explosions and lack of patience. Baby #2 will be here any day and I want to get a grip on this ASAP. It will be hard but DH is on board and doing it with me.

However, I don't have any friends wanting to participate and I figure, the bigger the group, the better, as we can all provide support and lend an ear when someone needs to vent. I'd like to start in the next week, probably right after I bring the baby home. If anyone is interested, you can post here or send me a PM, and we can decide on the specifics once I see how much interest there is.

I had just read this blog last week. I'm not even sure how I found it. I am not sure that I could keep up with the thread as I go back to work soon (teacher), but if you do find others to do it I would love to hear how it works for you!

I would be interested. I have a lot of patience but I find myself yelling at least one time every day and I hate myself for it!

Even if you're short on time, it can be good to know there is someone to vent to and that others are going through the same thing.

Just to note, if you yell, you start back to day 0, and if it's a really bad yell, it's back to -2! So I'm under no impressions that we will all be going through this challenge on the same day, etc., we could even set different goals, but it would be great to have a group with similar interests (frugality being one) working toward a common parenting goal.
