[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 75743, member: 1550"] I don't believe in being vindicative. The punishment needs to fit the crime. I'm not going to shred a DVD or game. I may hide it or lock it up, but not destroy it. I'm not going to hit my kid either. I do think there is a difference between a spanking on a padded butt and a beating on a bare butt with a belt (child abuse. I never did either. It's amazing that, since I guess I'm such a softie, I have two grown kids who never gave me any real behavior problems and one who did but straightened out. And they called me mean sometimes...lol. I guess it's all what you think will work. I prefer removing privleges. I will play hardball with a very defiant out-of-control teen--I did make my daughter leave since she wouldn't get help. And, yes, sometimes I wanted to slap sense into her, but I'm glad I didn't try. Maybe our relationship wouldn't be so good now if I'd hit her for my own satisfaction back then--because it certainly would not have been for her good. [/QUOTE]
