I've noticed alot of violent tendencies with some parents on this thread. It's quite ashame. I'm sure your parents used physical punishment on you, so now you think that it is the way to deal with a disobedient child. Controlling your anger is not for the weak. Intelligent parents find other ways to disipline their children. Hitting a child only teaches them that violence is the way to get people to do what you want them to do. It is archaic and ignorant. Read any valid psychological study on this subject and they all come to the same conclusion.
