      Gotta switch it up from all the emotional abuse every now and then. Keep them kids on their toes. /s

      God wants us to hit children. That’s why he made them smaller than us. (This is sarcasm.)

      Some people underestimate how strong a few minutes of boredom works as a deterent to bad behavior in kids. And there’s always the nuclear option - a long rambling academic lecture, with the only escape being through demonstrating (age appropriate) active listening skill practice.

      I think my kids sometimes wish I used corporal punishment…heh.
