Much has been said about "tough love" for misbehaving children..
Most of America thinks it improper to spank children, so my spouse and I
have tried other methods to control our kids when they have one of "those
moments".
One that we found very effective is for me just to take the child for a
car ride and talk.
They seem to calm down and stop misbehaving after our little ride
together.
I've included a photo of one of my sessions with our son, in case
you would like to try the technique.
