problems with authority figures
by not letting someone control you
by giving unsolicited advice
annoyed when they do not follow your suggestions
act as if your way is the bet or only appropriate way
get upset when others do not immediately agree or comply

violence

Do you get furious when you don't get your way?
Do you think people will take advantage of you if you are not in control?
Do you have an attitude that says, “No one is going to push me around.”?
Do you think you have to be vigilant all the time so you won't be in danger?
Do you hate it when people don't do things the way you do?
Do you hate it when people are late (by a few minutes)?
DO you need to know what is going on at all times?
Do your kids and wife know who's the boss?
Do you insist that the house be kept in a certain way?Do you get upset when something is out of place?
Do you have an attitude that says, “In order to do anything right, I have to do it myself.”?
Are your own needs the only thing that is important to you?
