Take that frown off you face while reading that it instantly brought back memories of when I was a child and I knew my mother was in a temper and was looking for any excuse to lash out at me. She would watch me intently and find the slightest excuse to verbally abuse me and I used to try my best to keep my face as blank as possible even staying still pretending that I was not in the room with her as I knew she was looking for an excuse to lash out at me. In our house it was "Take that look off your face before I wipe it off for you " But for the life of me I didn't know what look she was speaking about and then I realised that it didnt matter what my facial expression was she was out to beat me and beat me she would. At least when she beat me I knew it was over for a while where as if she didnt I spent the whole time worried about when she would use that look to give me the beating she already planned for me.
