I was thinking about the aprents on the other thread who say they can effectivly discipline their children without smacking. I was wondering if any of you could help me with my ds. As I mentioned, ds has problems so I don't smack him very much at all - he simply doesn't understand what he is doing wrong.
my usual method would be 1 - tellign off + explanation, 2 - sending to room for time out, 3 - smack. now when ds misbehaves none of this would work. He can't understand explanations, or what he does comprehend goes in one ear and out the other. He doesn't care about time out, he would quite happily sit in the coner all day - normally I'm fighting to get him out of the corner. So how do I deal with his behavior?
