My names Jennifer. I have 4 children. 10 months, 3, 5 and 7... ALL boys!!! My husband and I do spank our children. Not a lot, at all. We use it as a last resort, and much rather would ground them or take something away. Sometimes, a...

I can go on and on about this topic but lets start shall we. I think that more parents/guardians should discipline kids. Meaning physical. Now im not talking about punching them or kicking them or anything! But i think a small smack on...

I'm so proud of my son. I had to go to the store today. My mom, me and Blake went inside. I told Blake that we weren't there to look at toys and stuff we needed food and that was it. He agree and we started on our food journey. There...

I did not spank my kids. Did they ever get rambunctious? Of course. Gnarley? Of Course. Did I blow my stack at them? You betcha. But, I still disciplined them and made them understand deeply about the difference between right and...

I am black. I was raised in an inner city. Lots of black people discipline (beat, whip, cane and take a belt) to their kids and you can see how well that works.

Paying attention to your children is what does work.
