Yes I totally agree and you know what mom knows best everyone raises their child the way they feel comfortable

yes ii just want her to know right from wrong and if poppig her gets her attention than I'm not totally against but ii don't think she deserves it all the time just yet if that makes sense @mimiz

I was at the nail salon and this woman spanked her child that was being very disobedient I thought it was very normal and so did many other people as long as it isn't over board it should be fine

Lmao that's true @jessica0830 I'm gonna try that lol

@nyimasmommy5915, at that age they're looking for a reaction. As long as my daughter was safe I would leave her ass right there. When they look around and realize no one is watching their little show they get it together. Hell it even works now "bye Savannah!" "No! Ok mommy I'm coming!" Lol

okay that makes sense what all three of you are saying. my daughter is 9 months and my fiance which is her father thinks its time to correct her by "popping/tapping" her and ii don't really agree but idk what we should do either. she's starting to fall out and deff not listening. I feel stuck bc she's to little to understand my exact words but ii feel awful popping her as well smh @jessica0830 @jennatess @santistevanmommie

I popped my daughters hands at 2 1/2 but only when she went to touch something hot and it wasn't a real pop it was more like a tap to scare her so she knew that was dangerous. I don't really pop her now because time outs work better for her but my daughter just turned 4 and is fully aware of what's going on. If I ask her what she did wrong she'll tell me "I wasn't listening to mommy" or "I wasn't sitting quietly" so I can see a parent popping their child's butt at 4.

But I agree with @santistevanmommie -- too early and they won't understand.

I believe its okay. Like you said, just a little pop. My husband, however, is super against it. I guess we have a lot of discussion ahead of us before too long.

I believe in it, I wouldn't start it until after 5 tho because I feel that's the age they really start understanding what they did wrong and why they're being disciplined
