[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've seen this, too. I saw a three year old bite her little sister, hard, and get nothing more than a casual "we don't bite." I was shocked. This new "time outs are cruel" school of thought is a nightmare. Yes, sometimes there are natural consequences that can work, and that's great, but Jesus, if you take a chunk out of your sisters arm, you can go sit by yourself for a hot minute. [/quote] I have basically done this as a parent. The older one had been egging the younger one on all day (who is basically never violent) and got what was coming to them. I still wanted the younger one to hear it wasn't ok but it served as a natural consequence for the older one's behavior.[/quote] No in this story the younger was an (older) infant in a carrier who was doing nothing to anybody. What you're saying is totally different. [/quote]
