As Marg...Listen to me....do not, hit thoes babies. As Marg said at 13 it will feel good, hold their little faces in your hand and tell them No NO..it works. Remember I didn't hit you...much that is. I would hate to come out there with DSS. They are beautiful, you and Charlie are too, BUT do not hit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-1144204707679789682006-04-04T21:38:00.000-05:002006-04-04T21:38:00.000-05:00Hi Jen.

Don't hit or slap thier hands; they are learning everthing right now and they'll imitate everything you do. Get on thier level and talk to them briefly "we don't hit" "we don't whatever..." Time out is great for you and them but not in bed - on a rug or chair. <BR/><BR/>Remember my Mother - with the "wooden spoon" still need counseling! They are to young to spank -- Wait until they are 12 or 15! Then it feels great & you can enjoy it more!

So, take the time and remove them from whatever, and look in their eyes and say "Not safe" or Kangaroo or something to let them know you are concerned. <BR/>This is such a great time in your life---what fun. Relax and enjoy them--it is over toooooooo soon.<BR/>You are great parents and will do the right thing. If not, I will be out and bring my spatula.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-1144174230411307882006-04-04T13:10:00.000-05:002006-04-04T13:10:00.000-05:00I only have one baby who is not yet one year so I ...I only have one baby who is not yet one year so I have NO IDEA what you are going through. Just to add a couple of thoughts to the mix that I have been told by others:<BR/><BR/>1) Never discipline children by putting them in their beds. You always want their bed to be a place they welcome and not have negative feelings associated with it.<BR/><BR/>2) Instead of saying "no" something like "we don't play with that because it is not safe (and physically don't let them play with whatever it is)." I guess if they don't constantly hear "no" then they won't constantly say "no, no, no..."<BR/><BR/>These are just things I've heard, but again don't have experience with yet.<BR/>Tracy BAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-1144161594909150132006-04-04T09:39:00.000-05:002006-04-04T09:39:00.000-05:00If you do not like the word no--you can have a sec...If you do not like the word no--you can have a secret word like Kangaroo--and when you say that first, and get their attention, they know that next comes the action. I think you hve to look in their eyes and talk to them get their attention---Look at me. <BR/>Plus, Move that coffee table away from the Mantle.
