You don't need violence to reach this goal.
- benjohnson 6y agoMy kids got to play in the front yard because I knew they wouldn't run out into traffic. They didn't run out into traffic because they knew that doing that was stupid and dad would swat their butt. Consequently, my children got to meet people walking on the sidewalk. They got to explore the neighborhood and walk to school at a young age. A reasonable trade - a bit of dicipline that opens up their world. It has served them well.
- easton 6y agoI agree, but to say it’s not abuse until fear exists means that hitting kids is always abuse, which seemed to contradict OPs point.
