I’m very happy to say my >son and his family are moving back closer to home, but >in the process, they are currently getting the new >house ready before moving in, so I’ve been watching >the twins pretty much daily. Not to say Grandma >(Nana) hasn’t loved spending all the time with the >grandkids, but they do keep me busy.

Asking the right questions, >shopping for a brush, and I agree with Mary, probably >the most important part, sitting down and talking with >Jake and Alice about it. Making it clear to them how >things were going to change. > >Kelsey, the spanking you gave Jake was ‘so’ well >deserved and needed. I can’t tell you the amount of >times I’ve had to spank the children for misbehavior >at the store. Running off (when they know they need to >stay close), wanting toys/candy, throwing temper >tantrums or just continued whining/complaining on not >wanting to be there.

You have the >right mindset in that a good, sound spanking needs to >hurt, and hurt a lot.
