Remember Bob Geldof?
Before becoming involved with Live Aid and Africa, Bob was lead singer in a band called the Boomtown Rats. Their biggest hit was called “I don’t like Mondays”. It was based on a 1979 school shooting in San Diego, when a 17-year old girl decided to use her father’s Christmas present of a gun, to kill two members of staff and wound 8 children. When she was asked why she’d done it, she replied, “I don’t like Mondays!”
This senseless response sums up the irrational nature of the anger and violence that is a mark of our age. 2007 has been the year of teenage stabbings in London.
Do you have a problem with anger?
Do you go from freezing to boiling point within seconds?
Do you lose your cool at the drop of a hat?
Do you react aggressively if someone dares to criticise you, or gets in your way, or stops you getting what you want?
If so, what do you need to know about anger, and how can you learn to control it?
