When you talk to a kid and be stearn with what you are saying you will teach it to talk to people and stand by its words.

Kids must be told why. Not that they should abuse that dynamic, asking why throughout infinity, but parents must explain the underlying reasons and motivations for behavior.

If i do something that ACTUALLY WARRANTS BEING CORRECTED, then bring it on I say.
If you read my statement and used critical thinking you would realize i mean it should always be the LAST RESORT
I still can't see a reason to ever resort to violent behavior. [shrug] I just can't.

I got soap in the mouth, whipped with a belt, spanked, locked in my own room...
Then again, I was the devil child! I turned out well, great grades, job, not involved in a lot of teenage BS...am grateful as well.
A whooping is not the solution to everything, but it is definitely a great way to punish your kids mixed in with "love".
Whoop em, then tell them you did it cause you love them.
They will remember the listen and still like ya!

My child hit's my wife..i whoop it..Big difference man.
When and if my dog start's making fist's and back's my wife into corner's threatening her.
instead of biting..
I will whoop it then..
But it's either i shoot it.
Or animal control come's and does it..
But it's my dog i will take care of it myself.
Thus it's my child i will whoop it.
not call a doctor for med's later.

I hate to insult people and rarely do but are you mentally challenged to think it is a good idea to hit a two year old? Do you have a mental problems? You should definitely not be parenting.

First let me say that this is the perspective of an educator that specializes in young children ages 18 months to 5.
I can tell which kids are "whooped" by how they act in my classroom. They are more aggressive than other kids and more likely to use physical aggression to get what they want. "Whooping" is not something I agree with at all and it gets me fired up to talk about whether its ok to hit your kids or not. Let me assure you the answer to that riddle is NO.
Most parents have children with absolutely no education related to raising kids. All they know is what their parents did. Thus the cycle of ignorance continues because your parents "whooped" you.
How would you feel if your boss gave you a "whoopin" for messin up at work?
Please try to educate yourself on different parenting techniques before you hit your kids.

A spanking is not beating flesh. You are using neuro linguistics to negatively stigmatize a legal practice used to teach a child the difference between right and wrong, reward and punishment.
Open defiance must be punished.
If done properly the child will respect their parents by the age of three and open defiance will no longer be an issue with that child. That is how love works.
If you don't love your children they will be a disgrace to society.
Your method has produced many disgraces, thugs, gangsta's, morons, etc.

Throws a HUGE fit in public? Back away slowly, let them do their thing. Kicking, screaming, and stomping is a healthy, passive way for kids to vent their emotions. Once they are done point out to them they what they did was silly, and didn't get them what they wanted.

If I tickled my 4 year old when he was bad he would misbehave all the time!
So when your daughter is 17 and drinking, you gonna tickle her?
And please, dont answer with "my daughter wont drink". You know how many parents have swore this and their kids where drinking or doing drugs anyway?
