I have no issue with the manner that he disciplined. If you had read my diary

when I was a child it would be very similar to hers. My parents spanked twice

with a slipper and time out. If they had been that strict things would have been a

lot better. I graduated from high school with honors and have just a little more to go on

my college degree. My sibling has been in and out of jail and is very abusive to

me and my parents. I mean he put his second grade teacher in the hospital. My Mom

was desperate she went to doctors, teacher, and everyone and they told her that he was

being a kid ( of course at one point the schools just kicked him out.)

we finally found someone that would give us an idea of what is wrong ADHD

of course I will be giving my age but this was when it was first discovered. I mean one of the

physiologists recommended we tie him up. You wont believe how many times my mother

cried herself to sleep over this she went to so many different people asking for help.

my brother just ended up falling through the cracks I think that if my parents had employed this type

Of discipline we would have had a more peaceful life and my brother would be in a different place. And

please do not think at all I am blaming my parents because I am not I am blaming the system that resticts our parents and gives to many rights to our children.  The parents are blamed to much in my opinon.

Have a great day
