My husband occasionally smacks our children (5,4,3).
I am not massively against smacking but have decided never to do it to my children mainly because I hate it when my husband smacks them as he only ever does it when angry and is "losing it". He also shouts at them a lot . I think it is both ineffective and cruel.
I have tried to talk to him about it but , surpsise , surprise, he gets angry at ME and sulks for days.
He thinks I am too soft on the children and they will turn out little brats if I am not more firm with them (I don't agree)
Has anyone else had a problem with their marriage regards different views on disciplining children?
How can I resolve it?
