Those actions aren't kind, compassionate, helpful or productive... to me, it sounds like you're trying to rationalize those behaviours as being OK and beneficial to them, when really, it reflects weakness and a loss of control on your part. I think that trying to always talk to others with respect - without condescension and contempt - in a calm and composed voice is much more positive, helpful and effective when communicating and solving issues.
