Nope didn’t enraged me…

I am not a Christian n neither are my family…

We are old school parents are belief in my parents’ way of parenting…
My parents are illiterate folks… But they teach morals well…

But because are educated… We do our parenting the same but we explain to the kids too…For you
For your info… The first time I came my soon was when he was one and half yo… He went into the kitchen and climbed onto the drawers door handles…
This its the 2ND t time.

How hard the strikes? Enough for him to understand that what he did is wrong…

Btw Christians dun cane? Who are you to claim for all Christians?

And says who are all parents who are strict and traditional upbringing dun care about making learning fun and interesting???

Btw life is full of temptations… In my context, having the answer keys left in the books doesn’t make it right for him to copy… And hence faultless and not to be punished…
In life there will be more and bigger temptations… It doesn’t mean that he is right to commit it and not be judged or punished…

It he is wrong he is wrong… We will not educate him to blame others and say things like ‘look… Its not my problem… Someone left the temptations behind to tempt me’

I believe in scolding/use hands to smack too if my DD is wrong in doing certain things. I am not saying that caning is wrong. But I dont use cane as I am a bad-tempered person at times and I worry I may hit very hard.


Yes, I agree with you that scolding or caning does not mean we kill the interest of the child. We as the parents are always trying our best to teach the good values.

Btw, my DD copied the answers in P2 and I scolded her, threw away the book, etc…I stapled the answers then. Nevertheless, she did it again. I just threaten her that I will inform her form teacher. Of course, I also talked with her and clarified that mummy dont expect her to get all correct all the times. She is very scared and then stopped doing that (I hope so).

That wasn't my point. He was wrong. I was questioning the mixed messages you are giving him and your choice of resorting to physical punishment of a young child.

BTW, I've put up a poll on the use of caning, please feel free to vote and contribute your views there.

There was no mixed message I sent to him... He was wrong... I punished...
I was just impressed by his ability to read the answer keys... That's all... Its a skill he displayed for a wrong act... But a skill..

Don't :pokeeye: :torchme: Ever since DS3 was in P1, I let him mark his own work. He would do his work and check if he's correct. If he got it wrong, he would check with me and do his corrections. He did that till he was in P6. He doesn't do any assessments for sec sch. Anyway, he had very few assessment books - about 1 for each subject every year until he felt that he didn't need to do any. If I don't remember wrongly, he only had a Maths assessment book for P6 and didn't even complete it. Doing assessments may be a chore to some and if it's too easy, the child will be bored. Of course, if the child is weak in the subject, then have to do lor, no choice. What I mean is, assessment books should not be all and end all.

As for caning, I seldom use physical punishment. Unless it's a major 'crime' I usually reason with my children. Welding the cane is enough to scare the devil out of them. :rotflmao: Yes, I agree that sparing the rod will spoil the child yet, I have seen parents screaming and caning their children but still no improvement in behaviour lei. :scratchhead:
