People often say, βThatβs just how they are,β whenever someone has a hot temper. As if anger automatically excuses hurtful words, disrespect, or emotional damage. Growing up, I realized that society has normalized this too much. We are taught to understand angry people, but rarely taught to protect the people affected by their anger.
I understand that everyone gets angry. Stress, pressure, trauma, and personal struggles can affect how a person reacts. But having a hot temper should never become a free pass to hurt others repeatedly. Being angry is normal. Choosing to release that anger through shouting, insulting, or hurting people is different.
One thing I noticed is that people with hot tempers are often excused because they are βhaving a hard time.β While empathy is important, accountability is important too. We cannot keep normalizing toxic behavior just because someone is emotional. Pain should not be passed from one person to another.
As students, children, friends, or even strangers, we sometimes become the silent receivers of someone elseβs anger. Harsh words can stay in a personβs mind longer than people realize. Some may move on quickly, but others carry emotional wounds quietly.
I believe society should address this by teaching emotional control and communication at an early age. Many people grow up thinking anger is power, when in reality, self-control is stronger. Instead of glorifying aggressive behavior, we should encourage healthy conversations, patience, and emotional awareness.
At the same time, people with hot tempers also deserve support, not hate. Some people were never taught how to process emotions properly. But healing and self-improvement should be their responsibility too.
In the end, anger may be temporary, but the damage it causes can last for years. That is why having a hot temper should explain behavior, not excuse it.
