[post_page_title]An unusual reaction[/post_page_title]
One of the reasons that Hassell was so surprised by her daughter’s outburst was because it was entirely unlike her. Usually, Presleigh is far better behaved than that, so to throw the pencil box in the trash and slam her bedroom door caught Haley off guard.
The mom is hopeful that her response was just a one-off rather than a growing issue. Everyone does things they regret in the heat of the moment, no matter how old they are. Plus, it’s not out of the ordinary for children to act out sometimes.
