Interesting. In my house Kid reached for a light socket, I would take her hand, say no, and redirect.

Never occurred to me to "swat" her.[/quote]

Go ahead - Super Parent!

Never occured to me to judge over people's parenting.  [/quote]

former teacher who is judging, children hit because they don't have the language skills to express themselves- your are an adult who does and models the appropriate language for these situations- why do you think hitting her helps her understand better than the word "no"? I will never understand this logic. These are all teachable moments, if I can personally manage 14, 3 year olds at once without striking a single one you can manage your 1 or 2 snowflakes without acts of aggression.

Justify it all you want, but it doesn't make it a good tool for discipline or learning just shows you lack the coping skills to use you words, not your hands...[/quote]
