My very wonderful, very smart, very willfull 4-year-old son has been pushing the limits lately, and I have been at a cross-roads on how to handle it. This pushed me onto the right road. Thank you.Cirrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10697737589737748993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5218215652328409330.post-47051302086264462322011-07-01T23:11:14.591-05:002011-07-01T23:11:14.591-05:00I have a 16 year old sister who lives with my pare...I have a 16 year old sister who lives with my parents, and watching the way my parents and other adults treat her, who is nearly an adult really, literally makes me ill. I have times where I am just boiling over with rage because of how I was "disciplined" as a child. I was the "perfect" little obedient girl who hardly ever fought with my parents, and I'm seeing the long-term effects as an adult. I can't make decisions for myself and I let people treat my like crap all the time. I've been programed to shut up and do as I'm told: thanks Mom and Dad! I'm emotionally and intellectually paralyzed! I'm only now learning to overcome what was done to me as a child. And I want to point out, my parents weren't "abusive," they spanked me, I was put in time-outs, and lectured when I did something wrong. Sometimes I was hit across the face or knuckled on the skull, but not often. Because I was so "obedient," I didn't even get punished that often. Still, I look at the list of things you can expect of children who were spanked, and it matches up perfectly. I'm aggressive and violent (took years to overcome my violent tendencies), emotionally ill-equipped, and like I said, I find it agonizing to make decisions for myself or stand up to anyone.<br /><br />Thanks so much for posting this. Children are human beings with dignity, and they deserve the same respect and empathy one would give an adult, and they <i>need</i> adults around them to show love and affection especially when they are least lovable: when they are combative, aggressive, or manipulative. Children learn from the example adults set for them, not from being broken into submission.Carla Schmidt Hollowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12947846629735463824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5218215652328409330.post-53772668220016577712011-07-01T23:05:31.769-05:002011-07-01T23:05:31.769-05:00Bravo!

Aside from the damage done to the little beings that have just as much right to respectful, loving relationships as adults, killing their spirit produces adults incapable of fully functioning on their own. Sure, they can potentially be productive, but parts of themselves may never be fully realized. That is not a life I would wish for anyoneZoie @ TouchstoneZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08688056216105729821noreply@blogger.com
