Advice for punishing a 4 year old girl?

The four year old girl I nanny is ruthless. The parents are clueless in punishment because she has become worse and worse. She is a knockout with bright blue eyes, bright blond hair, and tan, skinny build. She is very confident in her looks because everyone gives her so much attention.

The parents spank her when she is terrible but the other day when the mom spanked her she said it didn't hurt, "daddies hurt the other day but yours didn't hurt at all" she said. The mom claims her hand hurt after spanking too. She torments her 6 year old brother with threats. She kicks, hits, and pinches. She is verbally abusive at 4. Today she almost kicked me down the stairs. She truly gets pleasure out of watching people in misery. She will talk back and her only punishment is yelling, going to her room, or spanking. These are clearly not working. I don't approve of spanking but they do, I don't think that is the answer...esp when it is as routine as it is.

What should we do besides nanny 911???

  1. super nanny! jk i'd talk with a child psycologist, maybe she can sort her out.


  2. Yeah you need an intervention. Good luck.

  3. If she says it didn't hurt than she needs another spanking.  Immediatley after that until it does hurt.  Otherwise it is useless as a punishment.  And no it shouldn't be used for everything, only for the really serious stuff.
