As a mom that struggles with this issue its not always easy finding what works for your kids. I grew up getting my butt spanked and thought that was the way things worked. It doesnt have to be. But its not as easy as " stop doing it" . You have to find what works for your child. And im currently at a lose with mine. Ive tried time outs and taking stuff away ive tried talking to him and spanking him. And am loosing my fucking mind.

I used to think my patience was top notch till I had kids and they became toddlers! 🤣 I'm still trying to become the parent I want to be to my children. Being a pandemic parent it tough. Spanking creates a power struggle, this parent is probably at a loss and doesn't know what needs to be changed or how.
