[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Take a parenting class so you can understand child development and your responsibilities. Attributing your son's behavior as a power play shows you don't understand your children. [/quote] As a social worker I 100% completely agree. You may not physically be doing damage, but you're definitely instilling using psychological & emotional damage as a punishment. If your child already hates the dark & you're forcing him into a dark closet as a punishment, he will develop trust issues with you. This is a definite. This can backfire on you in oh so many ways, OP & you positing here tells us that you're uneasy with this as well. [/quote] [b]THIS![/b] Couldn't have said it any better. Take a parenting class, develop some empathy. YOU want to punish him for wanting a few more hugs & kisses... you are seriously unreal. [/quote]
