[quote=Anonymous]No. I find it's pretty damn lazy and really hurts (my, most) kids emotionally in unnecessary ways. I do get mad at my kids, though, and I sometimes yell at them when I am really over the top annoyed. I wouldn't encourage yelling as a parenting strategy, either -- it's a weakness and a fault in my approach to discipline and behavior management. I tend to fall on it when time is of the essence and a kid is not cooperating (e.g., Mommy needs to get out the door, kid is dawdling seemingly without end; we're required to be someplace that requires good behavior, and kid is yelling or running around) and I can't think of anything more effective at the moment.[/quote]
