Talking to/ Stages meaning it will lead up to a spanking if they continue to be disobedient. Personally, my parents generation always believe that spankings were the answer and I'm just going to say I disagree. IDK. I don't have kids, but sometimes I wonder how will I teach them these lessons. Not going to lie I thought of this spirit stick thing or maybe it's called the talking stick. idk. I seen it once off of a movie; hopefully, y'all know the one I'm talking about (lady w/ 10-20 kids gets married to old bf with 6-8). And then my mind changes because I think of how bad the world is getting and you see these kids disrespecting their parents out here. I have no clue.
