[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 467646, member: 1514"] N..hey, this is Keyana's grandma even though I dont think you know me too well. You probably know more about my son because the two of you were having your kids at the same time. He actually just had another little girl a week ago...lol. You two keep doing things at the same time! LOL Personally I dont think this is ALL just due to current circumstances though some of it undoubtedly is. I dont buy into the never punishing a child thing either. If you dont punish them how on earth are they going to learn that they are have done something wrong and there is a consequence to what they have done? Your mom is a smart cookie. We think alike on many things. Right now A is probably testing her limits with you and daddy. I dont know what she is doing in school to get letters sent home. I dont know what all you have tried either. I can tell you what is being done with Keyana. Would that help? I will tell you just in case. We rarely have to go to spanking and that is only for the extreme safety issues. I think I have done it one time when she threw a fit over her car seat and unbuckled it while I was driving and flat refused to buckle it back and I had to pull over. I did spank her then. Not badly. Two swats to the behind but it left a lasting impression and she hasnt done it again. Not a lasting impression on her butt...a lasting impression in her mind. Most of the times when I have to correct a behavior with Keyana I use 1 2 3 magic. She doesnt like being removed from being the center of our attention so we use that to our advantage. At her mothers house, they have been having good luck with either time outs or chores. She is made to wash the toilet, sweep floors, load the dishwasher, empty litter boxes, wipe down counters, scrub the floor on her hands and knees. Things like that depending on what she has done. Her step father is army. He feels that her and her older brother are getting too old to spank for anything other than safety issues like running out in the road or something extremely dangerous so he is wanting to use something that will use energy and make them think while doing it. I kind of like this approach. [/QUOTE]
