When you see a child acting like an obnoxious brat you look at the parent! When that parent is paying NO attention to the child and/or telling him that he MAY go to "time-out" therein lies the problem.
Not pretending here to be the perfect parent but when my son used to start throwing a fit in a restaurant either my wife or I would take him outside. Today some parents just ignore this and think their precious child is doing no wrong - they don't want to be bothered.
Sorry but I never BEAT my kid but he got a whack now and then AS NEEDED !
Okay, I can hear some people calling me names now. But thankfully my son has grown up to be a very respectful and courteous person.
Okay - I'm done !
