SAH/WOH - Why?
| Mon, 02-20-2006 - 7:41am |
I am sure this has been done before but I was wondering this in light of recent posts lately.
Why did you decide to sah/woh?
Was it a choice or something expected of you?
Was your plan to sah/woh though out or impulsive? Long-term or short-term?

I don't think anyone has advocated a "natural consequences" only approach to discipline, most seem to use various disciplinary techniques. I guess the basic question is: are there always alternatives to spanking? I, personally, think there are always other alternatives and I, personally, prefer to avoid a method that involves me physically hurting my children, however mildly.
If you are happy with spanking as a disciplinary technique, that's fine. Your children, your choice and it is your legal right. But it is a choice. I honestly can't think of a single case in which spanking would be the ONLY alternative that would work. You are preferring to spank on occassion rather than consider other possibilities.
No, that's me.

Because it's a learning process.

Well While I agree that soda isn't really a healthy choice I wouldn't call it unhealthy either. However the issue with milk has been raised more than once with several nutritionists. Many say that drinking milk isn't necessary and that it isn't really a wise choice. That is why babies are weaned at a young age from the mother's milk. Look at nature. You don't see any animals supplying their babies with a cow's milk. Calcium can be gotten from many different things.
No one is insulting you. I am just quoting directly from your posts.
Both of my kids have had very very small sips of wine if they have requested it.

Why would it be understandable?

That was totally uncalled for and it's obvious you haven't been reading the posts on natural consequences.
