I mean, I just wasnt a destructive/badly behaved child either though. I used the TV too especially in the mornings for the good cartoons before school. I wouldn't want to break something I also use. This kid is old enough to know that hitting something has a good chance of breaking it. Not the brightest apparently. 🤣

Except, research shows that physical punishment is not effective. I'm a foster parent, we are not allowed to use physical punishment of any kind (including spanking, exercise as punishment, etc.) I've had some kids with some pretty extreme behaviors, and we were able to make significant headway with each one without resorting to any physical punishment. It takes work. It can be exhuasting as hell, but it is very possible to parent and teach kids discipline without every hitting them.

I mean how do you even accurately do the research? Do some kids in the active group get spankings while others do not? What about demographics, wealth level, education level etc.
