Title: Dr. Dobson is too harsh
Review: I agree with the first commentary in that Dr Dobson advocates physical punishment as an alternative; I vehemently disagree. I DO have a strong-willed, distractible, hyperactive, persistent child. However, she is just as deserving of kindness and respect as I am. If you were a 5-year-old child who adamantly refused to clean up milk you spilled on the kitchen floor; and I was the parent who then spanked you. What are the first thoughts you have? Are you sorry you defied me? Are you thinking of how wrong you were? Or are you thinking of ways to get back at me? Do you think you might lie or blame someone else next time? Try Kathryn Kvols "Redirecting Children's Behavior" - it starts from a position of unconditional love - what we are all looking for.
