I have two (4yrs&1 1/2 yr old) I've never spanked/hit/diciplined the baby. My 4 yr old thinks he is a Power Ranger and Karate Kicks/slams Doors on/ trips/ the baby all day. I first try time out. What a Joke! He stays, but gets up/cries/etc. I tell him if it happens again, he will get his booty smacked. He then showers me with Love,I love you mommy, your the best & I get hugs & kisses. they are very smart at this age. However, I say OK just be a good big brother! All day , I yell & scream (and he tells me "mommy, please dont scream at me" ) He will start Kindergarden this yr and I don't want to smack him every day, so I am now giving him 2 choices, Be nice or go to bed, If its at nite. He also doenst sit at the table and eat his dinner. (since birth, he was never a big eater, he kinda picks for hours) Now , I tell him sit & eat or go to sleep. And I am sticking to it! Its only been a week, but he came back down yesterday & ate all dinner! When your kids hit,did you hit back?
