My new job as an assistant manager is getting me thinking, are we deciding not to punish our kids?
I caught 2 ten year olds stealing toys and soda today. They resorted to lying and hiding and smirking when they were confronted. The kids behaved like they weren't afraid of their parents and knew that punishment wasn't going to happen. I'm thinking, when I was 10, which was not long ago, if my parents caught me stealing they would have beaten me to a pulp. My boss later told me they usually the parents just pay them and don't care with their kid just did.
This got me thinking, do you punish your kids if they did something like this and how would you punish your kids?
