We follow the christian bible as far as our children go. That includes one swat only when needed. I think this & last month there was one swat given out of four children. We are going through the ringer now because of our methods. Which are: a warning, 2 discipline tickets, and one read discipline ticket which is the swat. We give much praise, since children naturally want to please their parents. Also they get rewards for doing things when they aren't asked. We also have a schedule so they know what is expected of them. At night we have an hour open for anyone needing to get a "bug" off their minds.
Basically my visitor wants only warnings and a timeout if I've told them the same thing 30 times over.
