LOL man you're a sucker. You paid someone to coach you on how to parent your 2 year old? Ridiculous.

I have spanked in a similar situation. You had a fast response and explanation in terms she understood

I'll also add, that the great thing about you never having spanked before means that this will really, really stick in her mind that she must not do this again.
I think spanking can be extremely effective (and not traumatizing to the kid, because they understand they've done something egregious) when used sparingly in these sorts of situations.

Parenting coach?
Op, you did thr right thing. The explanation is age appropriate. That spanking is nothing compared to being hit by a car. Dont feel guilty. Dont apologize. Move on. Your kid will know she did something extremely wrong.

Your problem is solved but for others reading: a safety pin works for this.

It's not appropriate, but I won't judge since it's done.
Hold them by the wrists, it's harder to jerk away. Pretty soon they won't need holding. My son was a terror at 4 and completely impulsive but now at 8 he's really well-behaved. Good luck.

I have never spanked. But if my kid did what yours did, I would have. Don’t apologize for this one, op.
