When you were growing up how did your parents discipline you?

Growing up when we made my mom mad she grabbed whatever was near her to discipline us with. She had no limit she would spanking, ground us, put us in the corner, send us to our room, no dinner, she would do whatever came to mind. I can honestly say I do not discipline my own children this way I try to think of better ways with less pain

I got spanked when I was growing up till I was probably 12. Then after that I got grounded from things or got things taken away. Even to be spanked, it was a last resort or if I did something really wrong. I always knew that I had done wrong, and never felt badly towards my parents for doing it. I will give my kids a swat on the butt if they've done something wrong after warnings not to. They aren't in pain and getting it often and I get lots of compliments on how good my kids are.

Growing up with so much physical pain I did not want to discipline my kids by spanking. I was truly blessed to have taken full consistent punishments as opposed to having spanked either of my kids. I am all for spanking if the spanking is warranted, what I am against is the spanking that I have seen come of my acquaintance inflict upon their kids. Strictly out of anger and or stress that they too are experiencing. This something that I saw as a child and can't imagine causing a child the pain I endured as a kid.

How I wish it was limited to spanking. My father's disciplinary styles are very creative, I never would even dare do it to my kid. Heck! I wasn't even spared from my first grade teacher who was a terror. I was hit by a stick on my butt for failing to memorize a poem. I maybe naughty at that time, but I grew up well so my parents don't have any reason to ground me. I really don't want to spank my son, but sometimes he gets so naughty. I think it is best if we isolate them for awhile from their activity, talk to them and let them know what they did wrong.

When I was a child I also got spanked I think most of children passed on that stage and ended when I was in my teen years. My mother also is the type of person that when she started to look at you you should know what to do that is to behave especially when we visit someone's house. It also a practice that fault of the other one is a fault of everybody so everybody got a punished and spanked

You got spanked because of good reasons I predict ? Anyways when you get older your parents respect you and may tell you to start acting mature and yes kids will get bratty if not disciplined

yes, it's even biblical. but only for the purpose of discipline and not inflicting harm. a parent doesn't need to spank uncontrollably and incessantly. just one or two to emphasize that what was done was wrong. but during my younger years, i was spanked that it hurt so much. they left marks on my legs.

I got spanked as well, but only when I did something wrong. Not just because they wanted to hit me, it was for a good reason. Nowadays some f these kids need to be spanked! Most of them are rude and they do a lot of stupid things, that if I did back in the day my butt would have been red. I never got grounded, I never really met someone who parents grounded them.
