Physical punishment of children should be avoided whenever possible as it can lead to negative consequences such as fear and anxiety. If physical punishment is necessary, some safe and positive options include removing privileges or taking away objects, using humor or positive reinforcement to correct the situation, or setting reasonable boundaries that are clearly communicated.

Physical punishment for children should always be a last resort, and it should never be excessive or dangerous. If you do choose to physically punish your kids, it’s best to do so in a manner that is humiliating yet non-harmful. Examples include making them hold their arms straight out for an extended period of time or having them stand in a place of embarrassment. Additionally, grounding your children by removing privileges like screen time or video games can also be effective physical punishments as well.
