That reminded me of my Grandmother. She would hold your hand on purpose and tell you to dance while she switched the back of your legs. It sounds cruel....but it REALLY works! I think a nice thin swtch is as bad as it gets without feeling abused. HAHA! It STINGS......
My kids never responded well to 'time out'. It just gave them MORE time to think of what they could do next....usually to each other. I can truly say it's the arguing and fighting among them which drives me nuts. The rest is just piddly stuff I could deal with.
