It means redirecting the emotion or behavior on a person or an object which is not the cause of your emotion. Sometimes when we are stressed by school work and assignments, quarrels are more eager to happen between family members. We may be unconsciously displacing our stress and negative emotions on them.

Why don’t we displace our anger on something with no harmful consequences? Try hitting pillows! It is a fastest way to release your anger. Though it may not help solving the problem, at least you feel better. If you hate a specific person to a horrible extent, you may even make a bobo doll with his/her face. It fulfills all your emotional need. =P
