1. What is the best way to deal with a spouse who reacts very impulsively to situations or to things I say? Do I just ignore his reactions because I know he doesn’t mean it, and he doesn’t seem to have much control over it, or do I tell him that it’s not acceptable to talk that way to me/ to the kids ?
   I’m married a while but I only recently came to the realization that the reason he says a lot of the things he does and in the tone of voice he does is because his mouth works faster than his brain.

2. I am a mother in my mid twenties. I have been diagnosed with celiac disease a couple of years ago. I have kept the diagnosis quiet besides for my immediate family, my in laws and a few relatives. The reason being because I’d like to be treated as a regular person. I don’t want people to make a big deal, change menus etc for me. (Yes, yes in the back of my mind is my children’s shidduchim but that is not applicable for many years and we will ask the appropriate shailos then.) My question is: I sometime feel like I am not being honest with others, almost as if I am keeping something a secret which shouldn’t be being that celiac is quite common these days. Is that a valid feeling? Would you recommend that I open up and tell others?

3. I’m a mother of a large family and often i have to be strict with my children by ignoring them if they don’t cooperate, will this effect their self esteem?
   Thank you I grow every week more and more from your show.
