[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. The whole point of teaching your child not to hit is to teach them conflict resolution without resorting to physical violence. [b]If you hit back, you're basically confirming that sometimes you *need* to resolve conflict with violence.[/b] But, I don't think it's okay to just let a child hit without consequence. My DC is going through a hitting phase and I've had to put in strong consequences, along with teaching skills to use instead of resorting to hitting or threatening to hit, because often the excuse is "I can't help it!" If you truly can't, let's learn and practice things you can do instead. And all that being said, I do think some ADULT dudes need the crap beaten out of them. I've known men who abuse women, guys need a whoopin'. [/quote] PP. I do want to add - of course there are exceptions, like if someone attacks you to cause harm, you get to fight back and defend yourself. We teach DC that as well. [/quote]
