Oo nga naman. It’s really case to case basis actually. It’s up to you to gauge what’s the best thing to do at a certain time. Just make sure that you’re doing it for the right reasons.

I just got a short chat with my supervisor concerning scolding.. He said, “Bakit mo pa siya papagalitan, kung pwede mo naman siya paiintindihin?” Well, of course, depende rin yan.

ooh i feel like im reading mia’s achievements here too! sobrang sabay lang sila ni mia talaga, which is good for jamaine because she’s developing fast. me, i have to be really reeeeally patient. and i agree with you that sometimes parents are unconscious of what kind of discipline they apply to their children, not taking into consideration the child’s personality or needs. so i hope as for us, we get to be more sensitive because we’ve been there, done that.

Oo nga eh, I know I might have to resort to that at one time or another to assert authority. Pero I’ll see pa rin. If ever, last resort ko na talaga yun.

She’s sooooo adorable! She’s going to grow up beautifully, I believe. Speaking of spanking, it develops a certain “need” for it. “Need” in such a way that they have to be hit for them to realize that what they did was wrong. I don’t think that it’s really necessary to hit a child, but I believe it is necessary for them to think that you are capable of it.

In my life, I can only recall once that my dad hit me, and once that my mom pulled the hair on my temples. When I was unruly on the dinner table, I was being bastos to everyone, my dad hit me on my right thigh. I went quiet. When I told my mom I couldn’t go to school that morning because my head hurt, and she found out that I only used the time to play computer, she pulled my hair, and I never had headaches in the morning again. (hahaha)

I think I grew up pretty fine. It depends, of course. My parents obviously knew how I was best disciplined at the time, and it worked.

You’ll know what to do when the time comes. I’m not encouraging spanking ha? It’s a good strategy to actually make the children think that you can.
