He does not believe in spanking but Jason does push too far. His way of dealing with it, which I have not seen or hear of, is to have Jason get on his knees on the floor and hold his hands out straight for some length of time until he says he is sorry or won't do whatever again. I thought this was an interesting way of dealing with the punishment. Just wanted to post for anyone interested. Robbin Brahms {ucbvax,decvax}!trwrb!trwspp!spp2!spp1!spp3!robbin
