[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was spanked for silly things by my mom and my grandmother (she partly raised me). I grew up hating both of them. With my kids I usually start with lectures, then time outs, then take away something, and if all fails then I do a one spanking. I don't go from zero to spanking. I think at home our kids know by now how the "process" goes so they don't push my buttons all the way.... It's a good way for me too to not lose it all at once. But, yes, it takes a lot of patience. On occasions if they have a horrible tantrum they get a cold shower to cool things down too. [/quote] Are you crazy? You are an abuser. I’m appalled you don’t see that and talk so casually about it. You are terrible. Pray for your children, they will hate you too. [/quote] I come from a different culture where disciplining your kids is normal. We're beyond the "spanking age", my kids are now teenagers, one going to college soon, and the only thing I do is lecture them or take away their electronics. They are amazing kids too. Well educated and well mannered. They exceed in sports and at school on their own. Not worried here! The idea is to discipline your kids without the "rage" mentioned by other posters... [/quote]
