whatever im doing leads to yelling and yelling leads to hitting better stop when i make her yell or i get hit

that is how i thought of things and rarely got hit because after the first couple times i realized how the process went

yeah ok good luck spitting in the face of well-tested psychology

The reason spanking doesn't work is because it doesn't teach the child what is right. It teaches a child to fear you and prevents the behavior from happening in your presence. Instead you have to make the child want to do good instead of not wanting to do bad in front of you.
