Child Discipline
To spank or not to spank? That is the question. Personally, I firmly believe that there are some times when children just need a firm swat on the rear to engage their brains to what your trying to put down to them.
Others do have other methods however:
Tough Love vs. Spanking
Most of America's populace thinks it is very improper to spank children, so I have tried other methods to control our kids when they have one of"those moments".
One that I found very effective is for me to just take the child for a car ride and talk.
They usually calm down and stop misbehaving after our little car ride together.
I've included the photo below of one of my sessions, with our son, in case you would like to use the technique.
Its very effective!
Now THATS really tough love!!!
When they scream too loud, it's good to push your speed up to a hundred. The sound then gets muffled in the wind.
