I have tapped my kid’s hand and said no when she was a toddler, then spoke to her about her decisions. I have not spanked her. I don’t want to. I want to be able to treat her like a thinking individual and talk to her about stuff that happens and how she can make better decisions, with examples for potential solutions she could have chosen.
Once, my sister slapped my girl’s face without my permission as a form of punishment right in front of me, and I screamed and then cried holding my kid. I don’t agree with that type of punishment. It doesn’t make sense to me to hit and never talk about what could have been different from their bad decision making.
