Spray bottles instead of spankings, who would have thought?

I hope you will share!

My 4 year old was throwing a huge tantrum tonight before bed and I swear I could have beat her, I didn’t, but got pushed to that edge.

There was/is a spray bottle in the room on the dresser that I have been using to do her hair every day while at my Mom’s. I grabbed it after I have given her 2 failed spankings and sprayed it into her face. She “gasped” and looked at me and did not know what to think. I only had to do this 2-3 times and she calmed down a bit. I really do not know why it worked but it did. I am now going to have a half dozen spray bottles strategically placed around the house. When the spray bottle does not become enough I may use a cup full of water over her head and see if that makes my point. Hay it is better then beating your child right?

My Mom said she used to dumb water over my sister during her tantrums and it worked. I hate to spank or hit my child at all but have spanked just a few times in 4 years. If the water works I will use it. A little water on the bed won’t hurt. Maybe if she sleeps in wet sheets my get my point across. She is a good girl nearly all the time, but the tantrums are killing me!

I LUV Sharing!
