My God People. Beat their ass. Plain and simple. When me and my wife moved to Michigan and heard the word Timeout. I was like Timwout only occurs Down South when the belt,switch or belt your parent was beating you with broke. Timeout my arse. You knew you were in trouble back in the day when you heard your daddy pulling his belt threw the loops fix'n to whip your arse. Timeout...... kids these days don't know how good they got it. I've worked since the age of 12 (some of you know what I'm talking about) I never had to ask my parents for money growing up because I always wanted more for myself.

I did get spanked, occasionally, though it was always after fair warning, and NEVER in public. And I got time-outs, but after throwing my fit, I tended to fall asleep during the time-out (hmmm... I seem not to have changed that behavior much as a grownup. Sleeeeep gooood).

Your daughter sounds like a girl after my own heart, Deb. Oh, she's going to have so many wonderful books to enjoy throughout her life... my brother doesn't like to read, and sometimes I feel bad for him about that, though to each his or her own. I imagine he doesn't feel he's missing anything.
