About this Quote

This quote by Publilius Syrus talks to the concept that when a daddy is angry, he is frequently the one who suffers one of the most. This is because when a father is upset, he may take out his disappointments on himself, rather than on those around him. He might feel guilty for his anger and take it out on himself in the kind of self-criticism or self-loathing. He may likewise feel like he is not measuring up to his own expectations of himself as a father, and this can lead to feelings of regret and shame. This quote is a reminder that when a father is angry, it is important to take an action back and acknowledge that his anger is not just injuring those around him, but likewise himself. It is important to take a moment to recognize the feelings that are causing the anger and to discover a healthy method to express them.
