    Default How to control an unruly child

    Tough Love vs. Spanking
    (a psychological conundrum )

    Most of America 's populace think it improper to spank children, so I have
    tried other methods to control my kids when they have one of "those
    moments."

    One that I found effective is for me to just take the child for a car ride
    and talk. They usually calm down and stop misbehaving after our car ride
    together.

    I've included a photo below of one of my sessions with my son, in case you
    would like to use the technique.

    Sincerely,
    A Friend
