As a parent what do you feel is the hardest part of being a parent? Have you ever felt you are doing the same things your parents did when they were raising you? Do you feel you are doing things differently because of the way you were raised?

Punishing kids is hard. My little boy is only four, and sometimes when I have to get onto him and put him in time out or something, it's hard. He cries, he gets upset, and it makes it really tough to stand my ground.
