    let me give you two examples- both real:

    example 1
    when john messed up his dad would hit him while telling him not to do that, and how that disgraced the family. they would fight. johns in prison no for manslaughter.

    example 2
    Robert was raised not to fight. but when robert would messup his dad would warn him of his actions and how they could lead to a spanking. when robert was hard-headed and did it any way, roberts dad would sit him down and TELL him what he was being punished for much like a judeg reads off the charges and sentences, the punishment would be delt (usu. a spanking) afterward he would wait for robert to dry his tears and he would explain that he did not like doing it but that when you mess-up you will have consequences to deal with, he would have robert give him a hug and that would be it.

    the two boys are brothers one was raised by a over worked father in his mid twenties the later (robert) was raised by the same man after dad had retired.

    what i'm saying is that it is wrong to beat you child, but you need to give the constructive consequences for negative actions.

    • Overly simplistic explanation for a complex behaviour pattern.

    • May be simplistic, but it seems many members require such an approach.

    • You should never be mad or frustrated when discipling your children, whatever method. It defeats the purpose of discipline.
