i need some help on discipining my neice. she is 6 she is always hitting my son who is 7( they recently came to live with me) i don't want to teach my son to hit girls i have always taught him that this is unacceptable behavior. however i am not going to allow him to be her punching bag. i have tried a couple of times to spank her, but i really don't feel that this is going to solve the problem. i need some suggestions on what approach i should take in this situation. i am at a loss and at my wits end with it. i should also add that she has had a bit of a troubled life., father in and out of jail, mother that is neglectful emotionally to her, i have also tried talking to her about it, nothing seems to be working . help!!! serious answers only please!
