When should disciplining start?

Re: When should disciplining start?

Personally, I don't think an occasional spank does any harm...especially if it's on the behind. I would be a little careful of hitting on the face as it really hurts their developing self esteem. But if we as parents get into talking it out and controlling our anger, we may not need to hit a kid at all. Usually it's a display of our anger over something that could be sorted out just by talking.
