ORIGINAL: jlf1961 I admit that when time outs dont work, (grandson keeps getting up and walking away from the chair to try and watch tv) and taking away tv, or putting his toys up or anything else I can think of, what else is there to do? I admit that parents (and Grandparents, yes indeed) know what works for what kid. Spanking may work for some kids and not for others. I use time-out/loss of privileges (tv time goes bye-bye, but as I have twins, and sometimes only one is acting up, I have to be careful so as not to punish both). I have spanked each of them though, I will admit it, once each before. My "oldest" ran into the street (swat) and my "youngest" reached for a hot burner (swatted her hand). I admit both spankings were out of raw fear and not anger, and I felt horrible afterwards.
