[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A swat with a belt hard enough to leave a mark. Kid was acting out all day, hitting grandparents’ dog, pushing people, not listening, whining and spouse gave a warning that the next time he would be spanked with a belt. And of course the kid misbehaved again. I don’t believe in physical punishment but spouse felt time outs and taking toys away weren’t working. [/quote] No. He needs time out and loss of privileges. If husband wants to teach him discipline, he should monitor time out by sitting there. If kid is overwhelmed, y'all need to go home. To raise sensible kids, you've to work with them and be patient. Do activities with him to give him a constructive outlet for energy. DH needs to worry less about what other people are thinking, think more about what his kid would think. Punishing wouldn't help in long run with discipline but it would ruin his self esteem and connection with his dad.[/quote]
