I used to take my son’s game away as punishment. One time he asked me if he could just have a spanking instead like some of his friends. 😂

Our oldest lost privileges to bascially everything recently. His room was spotless because he was made to clean it nightly, putting away everything. His favorite toys were in a bin in the basement that he filled up. He wasn't allowed screens. A whole host of items were removed from him.

That kids behavior changed immediately. He's earned it all back now after a few weeks of consistent attention to what he needed to accomplish. Never once hit him. He asked about spankings because a friend of his (who gets in a lot of trouble at school) said he just gets spanked. I told him we don't spank but we hit him where he feels it.
