I'm sorry I was harsh on you, Laila. :3oops:
I think your sister in law is pathetic as well. I believe there's a way to discipline children without having to hit them. I remember thinking she was very lazy or wimpy about disciplining her children. Am I correct?
What's interesting, my older siser and her husband have spanked their son like it's going out of style. It does not prevent him from misbehaving. To me, their problem is that they refuse to have him suffer any consequences other than the temporary pain of a spanking. Their system is not working.
Spanking isn't appropriate for every child or every situation. If used, it should be done so judiciously, not in a rage, and shouldn't be the only means of discipline a parent uses imo.
