Arrey what's the point of regretting when u repeat the same mistake...😆Anyways. I am hot headed and suffer from some depression type issues and hence I lose control. I could go back to my happy meds but am too afraid to approach a doctor for them. It was easier in US.

Ek aur baat bolti hoon...bura mat mannana. Unless you have personal experience being in the other person's position,do not judge them or their actions. When I was younger, I used to get so upset when the kids on the plane would cry non-stop and felt that the parents were useless, not caring for the child, not doing anything about the disturbance caused to the other travelers. The first time I traveled with my child, I was afraid of being that parent who could not handle their crying child. I am fortunate, my kids are excellent travelers, but now being a parent, I don't mind staring down a person who is giving the stink eye to a helpless mother whose child is crying non-stop in flights.It's cause my experience has taught me that if that mother could really help it, she would want nothing more than a happy child.

Don't get me wrong, it's easier to preach and judge when you have not had that experience. I have many such examples of women who have felt that as a parent they would never- fill in the blank. And then they find themselves doing it. Not because they want to, coz that's really the only option left to them.


That's ok Rivs...😊

I am not judging anyone girl...it's just maine apne ghar mein hote huey dekha hai and ab us bacche ke paas kuch positive nahi hai apne parents ke liye kehne ko...so yes...I believe it is wrong...jis din main apne bacche pe haath utha doongi us din yahan aake I will admit...but until then..it's wrong to me...

And...jinhone yeh mudda start kiya...she is a very accomplished mother...she sparked off a negative debate...😊..to get our views out on this

No offence. But people will never admit their mistakes and they will never be corrected . Everyone retaliated and was right in every answer . To much failed families and they all start with abuse
Sorry but I will never intentionally disrespect the forum . This is my second home a place-where I can educate myself further. I consider everyone here my own but all I'm all ., the answers were all positive.
I always got my boys to open up to me by opening up a negative debate . reason why we understand each other so well today .



If this was an attempt to open up a debate then well played and well done.

And if I have offended you in any way then I am sorry.

Well...that's good for you...we never said u are an unaccomplished mother...u deduced it..we just have a different way of looking at things...and for someone as mature and sensible as u to use the tone and language you do...it's unbecoming..of a mother..and most importantly a woman...main aapke sabse chhote bete se bhi chhoti hoon umra mein...ho sake toh bado waala badappan dikhayiye..and kyunki aap mujhse badi hain and undoubtedly zyaada duniya dekhi hai aapne, I am sorry for having used a condescending tone with u...and I mean it😊


Thanks
What language
Anyways I am sorry . In this neck of the woods the language is normal
We have to explain it to the kids . Will not speak it with each other but the moment they step out the door they are faced with worst . Should I send them out to face the world blind folded ?

I read...I have always admired that person. She is very good during discussions on other threads and gets across her points well. I was kinda shocked when I saw your discussion with her.
And I agree. My cousin was hit a lot, and I have seen first hand the after effects of it. Which is why I know wrong from right. 😃

yes we all will😆
i have seen people are different so their approaches ...my mom and badi maasi never hit their kids...but my mami,bua and chhoti mausi did...and my mom used to feel bad for kids ...she can not see kids getting beaten till this date😆
though she is not a supporter of pampering kids in wrong way...but she thinks for long term effect you have to make kids understand. not threaten them to follow orders...i can not hit kids...even a slap...but i am not patient and i am very short tempered...god knows what type of mother i am gonna be 😆

But suja...the mother who does not hit is not necessarily a good mother either. Its different strokes for different people. We all have our ideals and we all want to follow it. Some of us are just weak (due to circumstance or whatever) or have our weak moments.
But how u handle the aftermath is most important. I realize that I am wrong, but I don't stop at that. I make it a point to explain to my kids that what I did is wrong and I am sorry for it. I also make it a point to explain to them why I reached that point and what their contribution was. Does it mean, I always resort to physical punishment. Nope, its rare, like I said, I reach my breaking point and thats when it happens. Do I try the discipline methods my parents had used, ofcourse I do.Do they work? very rarely. I read up on other recommended approaches, some work, some don't, some stop working after the first few times, some start working after a few attempts. Like someone said, kids don't come with manuals.

One example of when the younger one gets punished - he throws things when he is angry or upset (which is a lot nowadays since he is in the terrible twos stage, his language skills are emerging and he has a lot to say which we do not always understand). My S4 gets thrown a few times a day. Earlier today, he threw my keys at his older brother, right at his eyes. I am sorry, at that point I had to intervene since he could have very well blinded my other kid. He does not understand why its wrong to throw. But he knows and understand pain. KWIM?
