Tough Love vs. Spanking

Most people nowadays think it improper to spank children,
so I have tried other methods to control my kids when they have one of
'those moments.'

One that I have found very effective is for me to just take the child
for a car ride during which I say nothing and give the child the
opportunity to reflect on his or her behavior.


I don't know whether it's the steady vibration from the car, or just the
time away from any distractions such as TV, Video Games, Computer, IPod,
etc.

Either way, my kids usually calm down and stop misbehaving after our car
ride together.
I believe that eye to eye contact during these sessions is an important
element in achieving the desired results.

I've included a photo below of one of my sessions with my son, in case
you would like to use the technique.
