It felt like it sucked the air out of me. I was courted by a polygamist when i was 15. He said we knew each other in another life. That was strange. I was a tomboy.

I worked in Children's Services and the foster parent training focused a lot on discipline. They had to agree not to do it in order to get licensed but there were always some that reverted back to what they knew or how they were raised. The sad thing was we removed kids who were neglected but never beaten and put them in homes where they experienced physical abuse.

They earn them with good behavior. Bad behavior removes their 'things'. It works amazingly well with little kids, and when it has been reinforced through childhood, mostly works with rebellious teens. Along with the 'things' there should be extra doses of praise for good behavior, and extra doses of disapproval for negative behavior.<br /><br />I don't have a problem with a slapped hand when a child is reaching for something that will seriously harm them. But when discipline only means corporal punishment, there is something seriously wrong with the family dynamic.A nony mousenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-16309265314915309482015-09-13T08:15:23.872-08:002015-09-13T08:15:23.872-08:00Looks like a black & blue bruise on her right ...Looks like a black & blue bruise on her right side neck.

But if the goal is to truly contribute productive added members to society, parents must endure that unpopularity for as long as it takes for the lesson to sink in.dvlarieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14154934310323584284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-86584836207745192922015-09-13T06:29:55.067-08:002015-09-13T06:29:55.067-08:00Well, I wouldn't put an adult who offended me ...Well, I wouldn't put an adult who offended me into a time out, either, so that's a rather dumb argument.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-1824677448405209652015-09-13T06:29:54.618-08:002015-09-13T06:29:54.618-08:00People who have never experienced PTSD have no ide...People who have never experienced PTSD have no idea how easy it is to trigger an episode. You don't have to serve in a war to be afflicted; you only have to experience something so traumatic that it alters your sense of safety. What traumatizes someone varies from situation to situation. Often siblings can be exposed to the same situation, but not all of them will be traumatized by it. It depends entirely on YOUR personal perception of the event.<br /><br />You don't always know what will trigger you or when.
