[quote=Anonymous]These are both contributing factors, I’m sure. I will say that some well-intentioned parents know not to spank, but probably don’t know what to replace it with. They read a book and try it, but since they didn’t see their parents discipline this way, they make mistakes. Furthermore, families are smaller now. My mother learned to parent by taking care of younger siblings. Her younger siblings probably learned to parent by watching their older siblings have kids. Now that families only have two children, you don’t have that built-in mentorship. There is also less sitting around/fighting boredom required of children during the regular day. I see toddlers on the phone in the grocery store. I see families watching videos in the van on a regular afternoon car ride. Fewer families do religious services, which require a lot of sitting down and shutting up. [/quote]
