I well remember the "switch" that my grandmother would use on my bare legs. I did spank my kids but consistency is the key. Now I can't stand to see my grandbabies get the "spoon" . Time out works wonders. And you are correct Bro. Phil, time starts when there is silence and stillness.

Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. 1 John 3:2 KJV

If my time outs started when there was silence and stillness I'd still be standing beside my toddler from yesterdays time out...

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
I also do not believe in mixing correction or punishment. And for little ones always get down to their level so you are not standing over them. And a lot of parents get frustrated with little ones thinking they understand more than they actually do. Their thought processes are not mature yet. If you are frustrated or angry you cannot correct a child. And always let them know that you love them and that is why they are being corrected.

This is going to hurt me, more than it hurts you...

Oh, I have heard of people saying that.........I really even as a child could not stand to see another person get a spanking. It just broke my heart. I guess that's why it's hard to see my grandbabies get in trouble now.....

My mother had no trouble disciplining my hide but she is a lot softer with my kids!
Funny how that works!
My mother in law doesn't fit the mold though... She was soft on her kids and is MUSH on her grandkids... I had the hardest time training my husband to behave properly.
The switch works sometimes on him. The rest of the time I put him in his crib for 34 minutes (one minute for each year)

I have never understood sending a kid to their room if they a full entertainment center in it. Wow, big punishment. I have heard of parents removing everything but the bed out of a room for older kids with behavior problems.
