Children and Stress

[GoldenxChild1]

I would like to say I have endurance when it comes to all sorts of stress. Whether that be work, school, adults, travel, spirituality, health, and other things.

However, I will be honest, I can't stand to be around kids. My own or otherwise. There is no outlet for when they stress me out, for most of the stress I deal with has a solution to reduce that stress, or develop from it. Even when they are just playing loudly I just want to retreat to my room or the bathroom, and I find myself not spending quality time with them as I tend to avoid them unless necessary, like supper or school. Don't even get me started when they are fighting. Another thing, is I am over critical and upset when they make mistakes like make a mess in the kitchen, which I know is wrong but it just one more thing I have to fix.

Please don't misinterpret what I am saying. I love them and am a very lucky man, yet I have troubles appreciate children as a blessing. Especially when they are feable.

How would a Spiritual Satanist go about working on an issue like this?

I don't think it's necessary to always like the noise and what children do. I understand you.

But the incident you described must be harming you. Yes, it may not be normal to be so stressed because of children's actions. Even if you love something in life, there will be things about it that you will have to put up with and get over. They are children, you were once a child too. The family that raises him is responsible for most of his actions until he becomes a conscious parent. Maybe you can think a little more about this and gain understanding.

I would also like to mention that this may be an effect from your childhood. Maybe when you were little you weren't allowed to do certain things, to be a child, to make mistakes and to be spoiled. That's why kids may be stressing you out.

There are meditations to heal some traumas. You can also create this yourself. If that's what's causing it, this might relieve some of your stress.

Are you sure it's a problem with kids specifically or behavior associated with them?

Perhaps you desire stability, peace and quiet, and when that is disrupted (no matter by whom) you can't stand it.

I have similar issues in handling noise, and dealing with children, including my own. The advice I can give here is understand that sometimes this is a sign of a different issue, like burnout, sensory processing disorders, demanding job, or just in general being overwhelmed.

What needs to be in the forefront of the mind is these times with family and our children is extremely precious. There will come a day that these beautiful children are older and then they don't want to make noise or play like they did when they are young.

Do not miss out on these precious times. Work at this so you overcome this limitation. Your family loves you, and yes you are a very lucky man.

Also do not be too critical of yourself for having this issue. Just do what you can in overcoming it with workings, lifestyle changes, and other things.

Over time issues are highlighted on what needs fixed for us to better handle things. The situation you describe is no different.
