Parenting advice

I got this email from a friend and former boss of mine. Great parenting advice if you are wondering about appropriate behavior modification methods...

Tough Love vs. Spanking
(a psychological conundrum)

Most of America 's populace thinks 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 found effective is for me to just take the child for a car ride and talk.
They usually calm down and stop misbehaving after our car ride together.
I've attached a photo of one of my sessions with my son, in case you would like to use the technique.

Sincerely,

Loving Dad/Grangdad
