When I was a wee little toddler, my mother tells me, I had a serious temper. Kids are great at over-reacting to things and getting angry, but she said I was beyond ridiculous.
And when I got really mad, I would bite people. I bit my sister a few times and drew blood, and my mom knew that it would be a problem. She could also tell that I was going to grow up to be a big kid, and that a temper is a very bad thing for a big person. So the next time I bit someone, she bit me right back. She said I just stared at her with this blank look, started to cry, and never bit anyone again.
The point is that I think you'd benefit from having someone massively explode on you in a fit of anger. Being on the recieving end totally changes your perspective. Once you're on the recieving end enough times, its very easy to commit yourself to never doing it - you know what it feels like.
My dad used to get really angry when he was drunk and just GO OFF. After seeing it enough, I'll never act like that, because I know how terrible the other person would feel.
As above, a firecracker is never as bad as TNT.
