Never. If I get so angry to even consider making contact I walk away for 10 seconds.
|||
yes. if by quot;your kidsquot; you mean your mom.

I never slapped my son#39;s face, but I never hesitated to spank his bottom when he needed it.

also, I doubt I ever quot;slapquot; my kids.

When I was growing up, I wouldn#39;t dare pull anything like that, cuz I knew that my parents would have none of it. As godmother, you are entitled to some disciplining. If you sister or BIL interfere, give them a smack too.

My Mom was a Child-Abuse investigator for one of the wealthiest school districts in the state when I was growing up. Not some Bullshiit Social-Worker like we have today, she was a full-on RN with a Master#39;s in Education. The files that she would bring home would just sicken me. It proved to me that Child Abuse (don#39;t know wtf I just randomly capitalize things) doesn#39;t just happen with white trash and the poor. Some of the most twisted shiit I#39;ve ever seen in my life - beyond any movie - occured in some of the nicest (which is an anagram for #39;incest#39;) homes in the state. style_emoticons/default/thumbdown.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumbsdown:" border="0" alt="thumbdown.gif" />

The best way to make that behavior stop is to stop rewarding it.

Spank sometimes, slap never. By sometimes, I have 3 kids (5/8/10) and it has happened maybe 6 times this year total. And then it was one swat to get their attention.

Dad used to slap me upside my head, but nothing on the face, nothing intended to hurt.edit: to think about it, he still does..but I think now its to hurt.

a false choice has been raised here--you don#39;t have to simply let them get away with everything if you choose not to discipline them physically. Persistence, followthrough and rationality are the keys.We#39;ve never hit our kids. They get that scared look when we raise our voices, though (just by the tone, not the content.)

Can I call you quot;Momquot;?My mother used to use a wooden spoon to paddle me with when I was naughty. Whenever one broke in the process, the replacement costs were deducted from my allowance.The last time my mother ever struck me was circa 1986. I was 13/14. I called her quot;b#33;tchquot;. She caught me with a backhand slap to the mouth. Her largish diamond engagement ring split my lip quite nicely leaving me bloodied.Suffice it to say I gained newfound respect for the woman who birthed me and never called her a b#33;tch again.

I have three kids 6, 4 and 1. I#39;ve never quot;slappedquot; any of them other than a quick and immediate rap on their butts if they do something that endangers themselves or other children. I want them to remember times of endangerment moreso than if they don#39;t eat their dinner or wise-off to their mom (which rarely happens). I#39;d say that#39;s happened 2 or 3 times with the oldest, 4 or 5 times with #2, and never with #3.

The program was 2 years and required significant clinical work. The LCSW also required clinical work and an internship. I think you#39;ve confused social worker with caseworker. They should have different meanings. Unfortunately, even TV can#39;t get it right. Suzy TV Character decides she wants to be a social worker and simply applies for the job, gets it, and starts counseling people. It#39;s not that way.Your comment of quot;bullsh#33;t social workerquot; hit a nerve...that#39;s all. |
