Hi mummies!
Long time no chat here!
Stylo,
Din remember seeing ur qn abt spanking... in the parenting course that i attended, we learnt that there is a proper way of chastisement, which means spanking in biblical term. Chastisement is mentioned in bible : Deuteronomy 8:5, Hebrews 12:6-7, 2 Samuel 7:14, Revelation 3:19, and Proverbs 19:18. i hv yet to read more on these scriptural references.
I always very angry and use cane to threaten matt. HB is the one who can control better, he will use the method from the course. We suppose to talk thru what matters will trigger the punishment but think better to control tight now while they are young and as times goes by, things will be easier.
By age of 5, the chastisement may not be necessary anymore.
Trans,
Is this the same as what u are reading?
Phase 1 : Discipline (Birth to 5YO)
Phase 2 : Training (Age 6 to 12)
Phase 3 : Coaching (Age 13 to 17)
Phase 4 : Frienship (Age 18 through life)
