Inapproriate laughing.....continued

What a slap in the face! We were playing with my niece and nephews when my nephew fell and got some owies. Brayden instantly burst into laughter. I was appalled! But as I was lecturing him about sympathy and being nice to your friends, I realized, no wonder he's laughing. Where would he learn such behavior? Probably from his mom who is always laughing when he falls, or his sisters fall. Honestly, I try to conceal it, but some of the spills are so hilarious and goofy looking. I am going to consciously try NOT to laugh (when they're looking). Being nice all the time and a good role model is NOT easy. This mom business is hard work, I'm still not sure if I'm cut out for it. My poor kids are getting a raw deal.
