[quote=Anonymous]I sat on my kids - restricts their freedom to move, gives them the message that I actually AM in charge, but does not model hitting. Obviously did it carefully and gently. I also used a very loud, sharp, angry tone... very sparingly. I've also thrown a cup of water at my kid - changes the subject, and fast. Same message: I am in charge, you aren't. Some kids are difficult - in the long run this will probably be "strength of character." Just hard to live with at the moment. They won't remember a single indiscretion - but you do need more tools in your toolbox for next time.[/quote]
