Re: Parenting
thanks all!!
actually i use the time out technique...n i always thought it works because of the reasons nia_khan mentioned
but then i was reading this book ...n the author forced me to think whats the reason behind time out.....is it to make your child suffer like he can't take part in any fun activity for a certain time.....OR the only motive is to stop the misbehaviour n engage him in some other activity ....like sending to his rom to do wehatever he feels like....???
now i'm confused ......definitely i dioon't want to humiliate .....but won't he think he's been rewarded for wrong behaviour in the second case....???
sadiyah....i myself can somewhat relate ....though being the eldest i was quite a good kid...but still every child dives his parents crazy at some point ...so i recieved my fair share of yelling n spanking too....my parents were justified ....but still i don't want to do that for my kids.....!!:)
