[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would I hit my child...call it what it is: hitting. I'd never hit my child. It's ineffective as a disciplinary tool, since discipline means to [i]teach[/i]ie to help your child understand the right way to behave. Hitting them does not teach them the right way to behave; it just teaches them what not to do to avoid getting hit.[/quote] If that were the only thing you do, then you'd be right. Since it's just the punishment portion, it works well as a complement to the teaching aspect. Same as any other punishment, only more effective. If all you ever did was to take away toys and issue timeouts, that wouldn't work, either.[/quote]
