What if my husband smacked me becuase he though I was acting out that the mall?
I'll just say this: If you don't believe in hitting, then that's fine. Do as you see fit...if it's working then great!
However, I grew up differently, and would raise my child pretty close to the same manner that my parents raised me. This is not to say that one method is right or wrong, it's basically whatever works. Not all methods works with all kids.
