Yelling and screaming and kicking and spitting

Years ago when  did my counselling course, I learnt there was a school of thought that life is a series of grief processes, starting at birth with the sudden loss of the safety and comfort of our mothers’ womb.

When someone does any or all of the above, they are probably just expressing grief.

Even if it means taking one on the chin, it’s probably better to respond to their grief rather than how they are expressing it.
