Dylan Dreyer opened up about the biggest parenting moment she regretted and how she made it right. The Today Show host recalled an argument she had with one of her sons on the latest episode of her podcast, The Parent Chat.
The meteorologist recalled a moment she felt she overreacted with one of her kids and how she apologized and fixed the situation. "I remember this one time I heard the shower running. I come out and it's like 20 minutes later and the shower's still running and the hot water is steaming up the bathroom. That kid was sitting on the toilet, and I was like, 'You haven't taken a shower yet?' And he's like, 'No,'" she said.
"You're letting the hot water run, like get a clue. Come on, man, like, what? Water's expensive, you know? I just lost it for such a silly thing. And I remember walking away and I'm like, what is wrong with me?"

Dylan continued: "I just felt really disappointed in myself that I had this conversation and I just said, 'I was really tired. It was the end of the long day. I thought you were in the shower and just about to be done. And I walk into the bathroom and I find out you haven't even gotten into the shower yet. And I'm sorry, that was not the right reaction. And I feel terrible about it and I just hope you can forgive me and I'm going to do better.' And the way he accepted that apology with like, a hug, and then it's ok. You're doing the best you can. It ended up being a heartfelt moment."
