    tried everything
    even the light slap on the hands is a last resort
    when I held him he though it was a game

    I honestly believe there needs to be some other sensory association to go along with the NO when they are too young to understand groups of words

    just like a hug or a high five needs to go along with "good job" or "good boy"

    words just dont mean as much to younger children
    I respectfully disagree about words not meaning much to a small child.
    Mine gets extremely upset if he knows that he upset mommy.
    I have slapped his hand and that hurts his feelings more than hurts him physically as I obviously wouldn't slap him hard.
    And when I am upset with him, I sit down and talk to him about it.
    He just turned 3 and has sat on his time out stool 2 times. :)

    Yeah ok buddy, farting is wrong?

    Did your parents let you fart at the dinner table? Yeah, plenty of parents feel it's wrong.

    Only if I lifted a cheek and made the arm gesture of pulling on a train whistle. ;)

    Holden excuses himself when he farts. :p
    And he will excuse others, as well.
    He knows it is a normal bodily function.

    both are awesome and solve world hunger in their spare time.

    fair enough
    but you should respect the decisions other people make with respect their kids

    each kid is different and requires different types of discipline

    and if you read the dialog carefully, youd see we are not talking about spanking

    little kids don't fart. they say "i dropped a fluffy" or "so and so dropped a fluffy" :)

    If and when I have kids, I want the type which doesn't require spanking. :D

    I knew youd chime in on that

    Im talking about younger ages, when they still dont quite understand
    like 1.5-2

    Now I can talk to my boy, but not a year ago
    His physical abilities advanced much much faster than his language

    i was 1st to reply one this thread and it was with good common sense.. unlike the non-parents who have replied and stated nothing wrong with spanking them... how would they know? they dont have kids. :confused:

    i dont do respect.. its overrated. ;)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Hi there :)

    I think if the issue is age, simply removing the child from the occasion of misbehavior is enough. No corporal punishment of any kind necessary.
    ... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

    No then remove the child from the 'temptation'. If need be, time out wherever one chooses.

    You are underestimating the intelligence and acumen of young children.

    Children are more or less fluent by age 2. I know some more than others but nevertheless fluent.
