[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you know that hitting accomplishes nothing? Dont knock it til you try it. When my son is acting up I look him dead in the face and ask do you want a spanking? He then looks at me and shakes his head and says "nononono" and stops the behavior that he was doing.Most of the time I dont have to spank him because he stops the behavior after I threaten him with a spanking.

Alll of you people against spanking have probably never tried it and dont know how effective it can be.

So go ahead and continue to reason with your little snowflake, if you will. But dont be surprised when they turn into nightmares as they get older.[/quote]

You must feel big and powerful knowing your son is petrified of you. [/quote]

Actually, my son is not petrified of me. We have a loving relationship based on mutual trust and accountability.

He's 2 and we co-sleep (oh boyyy cant wait to hear what you crazies have to say about that) and in the mornings when we wake up hes gives me a big hug and kiss and says "I wuv you." So yeah he's definately not anywhere near to being "petrified" of me. Keep telling yourself that though, if it makes you feel better!

From an outsider's perspective, and most likely in my father's mind, he and I also had a great relationship. I was the quintessential daddy's girl, despite the fact that he frequently smacked me across the face when I said anything not to his liking, and "spanked" me as his chosen form of discipline whenever he was got mad. We have not spoken since I was 19 and skipped out. I worked hard to please him, told myself he loved me, and tried hard not to step out of his arbitrarily drawn lines. Was my father abusive? Not enough for CPS to care. Did he think we had a good relationship? Damn right he did, it was my attempt to keep the peace. [/quote]
