Product Information

For all of you who feel like flaming or downvoting because of this, please spare me the insanity of comparing loving discipline to abuse - if you don't know the difference then you made the right choice to not spank! Utilizing natural consequences (cleaning things up, etc) << that one is ALWAYS the best one, but sometimes you need a little time to think. However, not controversial is the idea that every parent does well to invest in developing an effective and comprehensive discipline toolkit, which requires intentionality and adaptability, two of the 7 Traits of Effective Parenting. When someone goes before a judge, even for serious offenses, they are doing so because they broke the law; it’s not personal. Another survey they referenced "found 71 per cent of parents of under 12s said they had used “minor” physical abuse when punishing their children (58 per cent in the past year)".

It doesn't take a lot of force to successfully discipline your child, and hitting too hard can cause injury or trauma.You drank champagne, you wore funny glasses, and you watched the ball drop as you sang the night away with your best friends and family.

Children who are spanked often have a greater risk of low self‐esteem, aggression, lying, cheating, depression and bullying. Whether you're feeling festive or looking for a business meeting with a view, The Nauti Goose is the place for you! Used correctly and infrequently as part of a comprehensive parenting toolkit, a spank can be that last resort discipline method you use when you need to create attention and a clear understanding why the behavior should never happen again.It was “during the 1960s, the women's liberation movement began drawing attention to violence committed against women, and the battered women's movement began to form. Be sure you are not feeling angry during the spanking, as anger can make you hit too hard and thus increase your chance of causing injury or trauma to the child.

Naturally, this further escalates his parent’s response and everything gets blown way out of proportion. For example, if your child resolves to do things differently after a conversation, then there's no need to punish them; they learned on their own.If you have negative connotations of your parents hitting you as a child, it is likely that spanking is a method you will not choose. Please talk to an adult you trust: a good teacher, a parent of a friend, a clergy member, or someone else. I want to make it clear that spanking shouldn’t be the only tool in the toolbox and for some kids it will not be effective. Regardless, Christians aren’t the only people who discipline their children through spanking so it’s really a moot point.
