HITTING DOES NOT IMPROVE BEHAVIOR



Many times we have heard parents say, "The more we spank the more he misbehaves." Spanking makes a child's behavior worse, not better. Here's why. Remember the basis for promoting desirable behavior: The child who feels right acts right. Spanking undermines this principle. A child who is hit feels wrong inside and this shows up in his behavior. The more he misbehaves, the more he gets spanked and the worse he feels. The cycle continues. We want the child to know that he did wrong, and to feel remorse, but to still believe that he is a person who has value.

Hello Families, we believe spanking on the rear end with a hand has a place when children are very young..



If your child runs out on to the road and you give them a spank on the butt as corrective discipline..



Once a child is about eight or nine, they are too old to spank in my opinion..



Other measures are more effective once they get that age.
