My sister used to whack her kids because she couldn't stand them being soo naughty..but if naughty itself may be acceptable,but they are rude and stubborn and always never listen to her that she got on her nerves and started to whack them and even give that knock on their head. Do you beat your kids too?

Kids are made to be naughty else what would a kid mean. The smartest kids are only those who are naughty. ya they sometimes are rude and stubborn but leave them alone at that time and talk to them later. We should never whack them for they are just so small to know everything. I would never beat my kid in life. Good Luck.

Yes, I would whack my child if he's misbehaving. There are people who say it's wrong, but at times they a good poppin. Like the kids that be on nanny911, and super nanny. Them kids are out of cotrol. Thankfull I don't have to whack my son because once I give him a look, he knows to stop acting up.

children are hard work but so is being a MOTHER. Mothers shouldn't beat their kids around the head and if i was close enough i would pay your tough sister a visit and let her try that sh*t on me. If i seen someone smack their kid in the head why i was there i would brake their nose before they knew it was coming!

No I never had to use physical punshment on my son. If you start at an early age and talk to them and explain why what they did was wrong and don't lose your temper then you teach them self-control. We did put him in time out an make him stand in a corner if he was being obstinate and would not listen. He could come out when he could explain to us why he was disobedient and why he would not allow it to happen again. This way he was forced to think about what he had done and try to understand his unwillingness to obey. Also both parents must set a positve example by not fighting with each other in front of the child or caling each other names and disrespecting each other.

NO , i don't think it's a good way to teach kids! That behaviour will let a shadow in the kid's heart , and it will not let it go ! So , don't do that to the kids!
