[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 78258, member: 3388"] Although I find it hard to praise my difficult children for not hitting, throwing, spitting, etc., I don't think spanking is the answer. I think that spanking only teaches them that it is ok to be violent. At least with my difficult children, I get much more compliance with praise than with punishment. However, I also find it ridiculous at times to praise them after a "melt-down" because they didn't resort to physical aggression. Even though I find this absurd, sometimes praise for not being violent towards others after a "melt-down", is the only nice thing I can think of to say to them the entire day. It's so sad... I hope you enjoy your time without your difficult child!!! [img]:smile:[/img] I wish I could join you!!! WFEN [/QUOTE]
