Never laid a hand on my daughter. Let her express herself and always told her if she told me the truth she would not get in trouble. I also gave her the message that the choices she made in life were choices she would have to live with. Never had one bit of trouble with her. She has always been very honest and talked to me about most everything. Even to this day she calls me everyday just to say hello and that she loves me. She also is very successful and has a great life.
It is very hard for me to bite my tongue when I see parents treat their children with such disrespect. You can not expect respect if you do not give respect.
