Okay, do you think she learned her lesson??? Geez, the best thing to do with a child who has stolen something is to take them back to the store and make them give it back and apologize to the owner/manager of the store. When my son was 3 he stole some lifesavor candies and I made him take them back and say he was sorry. He has never forgotten that lesson and he is now 20 years old. My daughter was about 13 and was going to the mall with her girlfriends after school on occasion and I found out that they had been stealing from many of the mall's stores because her friends were caught when she wasn't with them. I made her get all of the things that she stole, (make-up, bras, socks, other small items) and then I had her do up an apology letter on the computer and make one for every store she stole from and then we went to the stores and she dealt with the consequences of her actions. I just hung back and watched her go through it. It was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do as a parent and she sure learned that stealing wasn't the way to go....lol.
I have spanked my kids on occasion when they were young, but don't think it is always the answer and only when they did something that put their lives or other peoples lives in danger, like running out onto the road and stuff.

I don't have a kid yet, but I can tell you of the worst I've got. I (out of stupid curiosity) set a little bush on fire...which spread to a wall outside an apartment complex pretty quickly. Got caught, taken home by the apartment manager of the complex and later had a visit from a captain at the local fire station...I can tell you I got it good by my parents and the thought of playing with fire never came back. I was whipped on my calves...then my butt...and after they were swollen and in pain, I had to get on my knees and hold a phone book up in the air for 30 minutes...
Yeah...to all the parents who are against spanking...get smart, because "time out" does not work...there's a difference between abuse and disciplining your child...if you beat the child out of enjoyment or for no reason at all, that is abuse...but when the child is being a deviant, that requires action from parents and mainly whipping or spanking. Those who think otherwise are just stupid and retarded. Learn the difference between the two. This is NOT abuse~!!! Get it right people.
and the lady underneath me...made them go back and return the items and apologize? So you embarrassed the hell out of them. Now wouldn't that go under cruel and unusual punishment? You think only beatings result in psychological trauma?

Last summer, my oldest decided she wanted to raise some money, so she drew several pictures (she is artistically talented) and went door to door trying to sell them. All this without telling her mom or I where she was going or what she was doing. Fortunately nothing happened but her mother and I lectured her on how dangerous what she did actually was, she is 10 now but she was 9 at the time. We explained about kidnappers, pedophiles, etc. Then I took her over my lap, pulled her shorts and panties down and gave her a long, hard spanking with my hand. I didn't count the swats but it was a lot.

My friends kid thinks of inventive ways of torturing his sister and wrecked there truck.
When he was 3 and she was 11/2 He shoved her in between the sliding glass door and screen door. When the mom found her she was stuck in the middle of the doors.
He then dumped a bottle of vegetable oil on her head and it took over a week to get all the oil out of her thick hair.
One day he took their business stamp and stamped the babies entire body with it (black Ink),When the mom found him he was trying to clean it off with windex.
At 31/2 he jumped in their truck backed it up and wrecked the doors (they were both open and when he backed it up the doors hit poles and forced the doors backwards in the wrong direction.
He locked them out of the house several times and the car.
He took mud and wiped it all over someone elses car. They had to pay 700 dollars for a new paint job.
He ate her 400 dollar eye contacts.
All of this before he turned 4 Yikes!

It all starts with where your kids want to be when they grew up.If they have people around them(mentors,work related).then you may have to consider moving to a more up lifting environment.Church is not always the answer but hard work such as house cleaning,working in the yard,even volunteer work.suround them with people who make a difference.Spankings only help when it is dune when they are little and even then you have to show them the altrenatives.

Why are you hung up about spanking?? You have asked at least 2 questions about it. Are you maybe a naughty child and been getting spanked???

My six year old daughter had herself a mini bonfire out on the road, burning important papers, i took her inside bared her bottom and gave her twenty with the belt. It has only been about a week but she has been quite well behaved ever since.

I don't believe that was the best approach but in answer to your question, my daughter was 4 and she hit her sister. We made her apologize and then sent to her to her room to think about what she did.
My husband and I decided to discipline our children by spanking them but quickly changed that plan when we noticed it didn't really work. The bad behaviour was still present so we decided to use time-outs. That seemed to do the trick.

I do not believe that you teach a child anything good by hitting them. There are other ways.
