"I'll be tough."

I don't spank. Not that I think it's bad but I just have never spanked Wyatt. Wyatt is a Love and Logic kid through and through. When I'm calm he responds but if I raise my voice he either thinks it's funny or responds worse. So hopefully he keeps me in check because sometimes with these hormones a raging it's hard to stay calm.

But remember the other day when I was mad? I wanted to spank.

Me: Wyatt, do you need a spanking?
Wyatt: as he is running over to me he said, "Okay!"
Me: it's going to hurt
Wyatt: I'll be tough

Needless to say I didn't spank because how could I?

I don't like to and I try not to. One time I did and I seriously started crying and put myself in a time out while my child cried at my locked bathroom door as I cried because parenting is so hard and I wish I had all the answers. I wish I was better at love and logic. I do like the two choices and natural consequences of it. I just tend to be a hot headed person and can't keep my own temper tantrums in check.
