The large is likely a good reason why that girl popped off at her dad....the girl apparently is his equal in their household. Speaking of....I was reading an article not too long ago, and here is a clip of it.....
http://childcare.about.com/cs/behaviors/qt/reasoning.htm This is one of the most assinine forms of parenting I've ever seen. Chances are it's bedtime anyway. Giving a child an option to NOT do what you want is parental failure, and what's the sense in repeating it the next day? Only the parent even remembers by then. The article is poor advice in it's entirety. While I do agree not to discipline in anger, depending on the age of the child waiting will make the child wonder what is the discipline even for as time has passed already. |
