Thoughts on Gentle Parenting?

As a kid, who wasn't extreme ill-mannered, have had my share of beatings I think it is ego satisfaction or let out of anger on something you have produced and feel entitled to use as punching bag

But ones who haven't been subjected to those are in a high of their own. Feels like they were God sent for leveling up Earth

Hence, extremes. What’s your opinion?

Gentle parenting is the only parenting we need.

This doesn’t mean there should be no disciplining when kids misbehave :/

How do you discipline?

No ice cream for a week if the kid spits on another kid/adult

There are other ways to make kids disciplined without beating them up, so parents should use that.

Well I was never beaten but my parents used a louder voice and an angry body language when I was not of the age where I can understand things.

Once I reached the age I can understand they made me understand whenever I made the mistake including the impact which those mistakes caused.

Apart from that I don't know anything yet but will find the proper way to do it if and when I become a parent.

😂 I saw a reel where a young girl swiped $600 bag on mom's credit card and had a look of attitude and nonchalance

I felt giving two tight on that face. But then kids don't know value of money, what's point of beating/slapping
