One of my Co-workers has a theory about acting when angry. She says to always wait 24 hours. I have used her method and it works well. I remind my husband to do it as well especially when it comes to work matters. We call it the "24 hour rule".
Next time, if there is one, give it a day before responding.
That said... I don't blame you. She could have hurt you or one of the children by acting so childishly and slamming the door. She could have even hurt her own child.
Good riddance to her. Go wash that babe out of your hair!
