    My "common sense" tells me that hitting other people, whether it be under the guise of discipline or not is wrong. I don't think violence should be a part of any family's tradition.

    Sometimes, fixing things requires some deeper thought than, "just leave well enough alone". Sometimes, when you know better, you do better.

    Sure ok. But you are arguing your point. LOL And so am I...nothing wrong with that. But I guess, when you've had enough, we stop. Smiley faces all around.

    To me that's the glory of the world we live in, so many points of view, so many ways of doing things and the FREEDOM to speak our opinion! and for the most part...the freedom to live how we want! I know we see eye to eye on some things alpha....just not this!!!! ("what-evs" isn't that what all the kids say now a days?)

    I agree with this statement!

    (I do care)....but I DON'T CARE how you parent your child...just PARENT them!!! Don't be their friends, set rules and expetations and follow through with 'threats'. If all parents actually did their jobs I don't see the issues. IMO

    Yes diversity is the spice of life in many things including opinions .... life is like a box of chocolates and you never know what your gonna get .... I personally think a box of chocolates would not nearly be as enticing if they were all exactly the same flavor .... specially if they were all those sweet truffle things and there were no chewy toffees that make you pause and chew and savor them!

    I love me a good debate ~ I grew up having to debate and often being forced to suddenly debate the 'other persons side' as the right course of action ... its what allowed me to survive so long in centre care defending and debating practice that was not really authentically me but what was viewed at the time as 'best practice' for my profession ... of the joys!
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."

    *Not trying to toot my own horn*

    I've been told that my dd is very well behaved and knows when I mean business because I'm a no nonsense parent. That I am...when I say no...it's no. I don't care if you turn blue from screaming. No. and if it goes on too long I will tell you to STOP or else...

    I came from a spanking 'world' and to ME it's one I agree with. Now I have cousins who were never spanked and always listened to their parents and did what's right. So I know that BOTH ways of parenting work!!

    I've also had friends "run their mouths" on how I wll never hit my child....well their child is on a time out every 5min and just for the second time kicked his little sister in the head. Oh yeah....'my freind' is doing a GREAT job there! Do I think it has to do with them not-spanking their child? NO...it's about them not knowing how to parent their child!

    I think it all boils down to teaching your child right from wrong. Manners and everything else weather or not they (the child) likes it. However you do it....parent the child. There is a saying I quite like "If you've never once said 'I hate you' then I'm not doing my job!".



    BTW-
    We can't force our opinions on why spanking is good or bad. It's an opinion....once it is said - that is it. No need to come back and "prove" your thoughts again and again and again..... we "got" it.

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
Did you know?
On average, a listing is viewed each month by more than 50 parents looking for an available opening for their child!
