[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in an era when spank with a belt was OK. Don't think parents actually did it, however. So when I had two toddlers, I thought, who will know if I slap their little fingers. Well, they did, and began to hit back. Not very hard, but they are kids, and hitting is just OUT of bounds in their preschool, with their friends and so on. So, I learned: violence begets violence. I never hit the kids. Yell at them (I am not perfect!) And sometimes I just want to wish myself away to another, quieter universe. I repeat to myself: just look how little they are. Pick on someone your own size. Seems to help me get perspective.[/quote]
