I was only spanked once. I never ran into the street without my mom again. She still regrets doing it.

and what will be your plan to keep them from acting up..

are you going to talk to them and see how they feel .....talk about their emotions?

Denying them the ability to use or do something they enjoy is far more effective than spanking. It worked for me; every time I acted up, I was threatened with having my favorite thing at the time taken away so I shut the fuck up. The only problem with this is that parents have to be able to not give into their child's disappointment when the kid realizes, "Oh, shit, I guess she actually took it away."

i actually like it. there is no need to spank a kid.. i used to listen to my parents and what not... and they didnt spank me, sometimes i didnt listen and they just reasoned, took away stuff.. etc.

That's how my mother raised me. Never once did she place her hands on me. I pulled a fit once in a grocery store and she look me in the eye and said, " Don't you EVER do that again, ever" and I stopped. Never again did I talk back, pull a ft, act out ( aside from the teenager phase I went though)

IMO, and what I and my friends have been though with parents, getting yelled at or talked to aggressively, works better than hitting your kids.

answer me this: When your kid acts out, you'll spank them....what appends when they don't take it seriously and turn around and do what they did the first time? Spank them again? You'll only end up spanking and spanking them which is how some parents start abusing their kids. ( I doubt you'll ever do that, I'm just saying as an example and what I've heard happened to kids before.

the problem i have with taking things away..is when i was a kid you just found something else to play with. No biggie.. kids know they will get it back sooner or later i did and that crap didnt work.

Exactly.

I believe in rewarding good actions and that will always be far more positive and will get better results, than punishing bad behaviour with any kind of violence or destructive criticism.
