My daughter is 4yo.My neighbour's son is 1yo.When misbehaving my daughter usually gets punished and if it is a real misbehaving she gets spanked.But yesterday when my neighbour had left his son with us,cause we babysit our children for each other sometimes...I saw my daughter hitting the baby(she hit him only twice and not very hard).I confronted her and asked about that and she said "I'm just playing,daddy".
I'm afraid she has accepted that older people can hit younger people,as I do with her when she misbehaves.I don't want her to grow up thinking that hitting solves our problems and that hitting is acceptable.I'm already afraid to hit her again and I'm trying to find other discipline methods which don't teach violence.Please help!!!
