Advantages: happy child if it works

Disadvantages: unhappy child if it doesn't work

Christmas time is when children are probably most happy. No school and anticipation for Christmas presents are foremost in their minds. Fun begins after christmas is over.


Buy them lots of presents. Lol, actually being a parent is a very difficult job. Child discipline is hit and miss.

There is no one perfect solution to dealing with naughty kids.

Taking away what they like most is probably the most effective way on telling them who the boss is.

Little ones are very clever they work out how to manipulate their parents.

Locking away your child for 1/2 hour could also work.

My mother used to take away my pocket money if I was naughty.

Physical punishment does have desire effect in the short run, but research in US and UK has suggested that it is not more effective than any other method. More you hit your child more tolerant they become to this and in the long run emotional problems could become an issue.

Being a parent is not easy and unruly children makes life very difficult. I suppose the best advice is to buy a book on being a parent and try everything out.

I would suggest the following:

talking
taking away privileges
light physical punishment
and if that doesn't work consult a specialist.

The most essential thing is not to blame for yourself. Most parents at one time or another have problems with their children.

Summary: being a parent is a very difficult job.
