[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]sometimes with spanking[/quote] OP here - I did smack his butt for the first time over the weekend when he got out of control. One swat. He hit me back.[/quote] Of course he did, you just showed him that hitting someone is a good way to communicate your frustration with him. He learned really quick.[/quote] This. This is the age where you can actually talk to them. We used timeouts, explained consequences of their actions, being consistent with these consequences and, sounding out how they feel, and recognizing and providing solution on how to deal with it works. It's not instant but they will eventually get it.[/quote]
