Yelling or spanking — is old-school parenting really effective? [TheHealthSite.com]

 

There isn’t such a thing as perfect parenting. We all learn with our experiences. As a parent, disciplining your child is one of the biggest challenges you will ever face. When you discipline children, you help them learn how to and how not to behave. But it’s easier said than done. Many things that kids do can get on your nerves -misbehaving, disobedience, spilling milk on the carpet, whining about buying a toy at the store, not doing their homework, etc. So, what do you resort to – spanking or yelling? Your parenting decisions or style can have long-term psychological effects on your child. Whatever you choose, you need to be aware that there is a difference between bad behavior and annoying behavior. When you spank or yell, the chances are that you are annoyed.
