[blparent] My son's teacher

[Gail Kilbourn]

I do rais my voice at times, and I do spank.  I also spend time at school, and maybe at play time, he should be required to hang out with you at school, or hang out with another adult.  I don't know how old this child is, as I just joined this list, but it is important to solve the problem when he is still young.  It might be a bit of a long hall to figure out what works.

I’ve got someone telling me “spare the rod, spoil the child,” spank him. the teacher saying she doesn’t spank, and then my parents are saying “well we don’t spank you enough.” Right now I’ve got him in his room. I don’t know what he’s doing, but ugh! he just came to me and said, “I misss you.” He tried pulling that on me when I was spanking him or trying to. He resists and sits on his butt and I’m not strong enough to turn him over so I slap what I can. He makes me so mad but at the same time I want to cry.
