1) When one
grits their teeth in suppressed
anger. It is not what you say when you are gritting your teeth, but a word describing the action itself.
2) When an
adult is overflown with so much emotion towards a child and expresses it while gritting their teeth to suppress her from overreacting.
1) *Earlier in the day, your sister had broken your game console, and it is your birthday.
Also your dad has been at

You: *meeshkaring*

boy's 5th birthday party and his aunt walks in. The young
