Well, she has tried in her own ways that is explaining. Hitting in not the only way to punish people. My parents have never hit me, they explain. She told before running away that she was wrong. She tried to stop it. She scolded Pia and told her that she would never forgive her for what she did to pooch's kid. I have been repeating this many times. I guess, our definitions of punishments are different. She did punish in her own way for the mistakes she did to third parties. Hence, she has tried. Tried in her own ways to make her understand. And On the other hand, I see Jai only hitting and asking her to shut up but not explaining to Jigs about her mistakes. Explaining is equally important. Just hitting and shutting up for the time being does not work.
***I agree that u need not hit to teach or correct a person! But if a person doesnt understand or listen what yr elder is saying, there must be some punishment to be given or a lesson should be taught to correct them?? Dont u think so? If u are in love with yr daughter and she is trying to upset u and u just try to explain her and leave it, its ok, but yr daughter's misdeeds are hurting n number of people around and they are being suffered for those deeds? And u only break off yr ties with yr daughter when u are hurt? 😕 That's strange and that's not going to make me or u as being a good mom or a good sibling?
Its not to offend anyone!
