[QUOTE="Shari, post: 427977, member: 1848"] I think what she means is that expecting the same results with the same methods of parenting today isn't realistic. I don't know about everyone here, but I know my parents didn't "spare the rod", so to speak. I began my parenting journey much the same way...I didn't beat my kids, but I did spank them. It worked for 2. Epic fail on the third. I promise you can not beat him into a different behavior. Period. But why wouldn't we expect it to change? We don't live in that same time, and everything is different. TV is different, school is different, food is different, work/life balance is different...what is the same, and why would we expect the same methods to work today? I still say the Amish are onto something... [/QUOTE]
