My wife thinks I'm yelling, I feel like I'm not.


We run into this problem every once in a while. My wife works odd hours as a nurse and I'm lucky enough to have an 8-4. I deal with our daughter most of the time, going to daycare and dinner, followed by bedtime. Sometimes my short fuse gets the best of me and I'll snap at my daughter. I know this is a mistake and apologise and explain to her what happened.On weekends my wife and I are together and as is normal with kids she gets bored and chatty when there is "nothing" to do. When I get to the end of my rope, I'll slightly raise my voice and change to a more serious tone to let her know I need her to play by herself for a while. The problem is my wife says I'm yelling at her, but I don't believe I am. I can easily get way louder and more forceful. I brought up the fact I don't think I'm yelling multiple times but she is holding firm. Am I in the wrong? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2a6YNRn
