[quote=Anonymous]I would have been okay with a swat on the butt in that situation, but no objects, ever. Sometimes the thing that breaks the chain of kid behavior needs to be a swift immediate shock in the moment, over and done. Explanations, reasoning, logic don’t really work on a,preschooler. If they do, your kid was always going to be inclined to be obedient anyway. I only did it three times in my kid’s life, and for danger situations. I wanted him to be afraid of getting a spanking enough not to run in the street/climb on a third floor balcony. For the rest, I tried all the time outs, 1-2-3 magic, but so many times I remember thinking to myself “this would be so much simpler if the kids occasionally got a swat on the butt”. One swat, no beating. You do need a class on parenting just to learn techniques to try to disrupt the situation before it gets to the point where spanking is the best option left. Remove, redirect, repeat. [/quote]
