[QUOTE="HannahT, post: 69563831, member: 328747"] I grew up in a time when most parents spanked. There is a difference between them that tends not to be spoken about. I mean the ones I still know that it was used sparingly, and it wasn't over the top? They turned out fine. It was the parents that used it as a constant tool - or only tool - for discipline that ended up being violent themselves. Then you have those kids that just plain don't respond to that type of punishment, and then those that do. Again, I'm speaking of the sparingly and not only tool group. I found you have to get creative with each child. My son had a toy horsie, and if you placed that toy on top of the refrigerator for a certain length of time according to his age and offense? He was good a gold the rest of the day, and didn't tend to repeat the offense. You would have thought the world came to an end with horsie out of REACH!! My daughter you had to use a certain tone of voice, because the toy removal, time out, sit in room, etc just didn't do it for her. When she was younger EVERYTHING was drama with her. lol she is in her 20's, and at times it still can be! Yet, when she was younger? Over the top. If you used a certain tone of voice (the mommie voice) with her? She was in puddles for a few minutes, and you didn't even have to say much. Just NO! in a certain tone that the sniffles started. That got her attention, and then you reason with her? She was fine then. She was easier to reason with overall compared to my son. Although my son was a non stop running in every direction and didn't crash until bedtime type of kid! lol! What's funny is as the boy got older? So did his toys, and it still works. Tone or a LOOK for her? It calms her down right away. She doesn't start crying anymore...lol thankfully. That's not to say that was the only tool in the toolbox, but I need my best to find the best torture technique (Yes, sarcasm) for each child. I can only think of maybe 2 times I popped them on the bottom once to get their attention over a major offense. They reacted better to the removal of toy or mommie tone of voice better. So, I went with it! [/QUOTE]
