Saw this one on AFV. Kid would get a major time out. Quite annoying!. My kids never got to throw tantrums and I also didn't beat them. I just told them they were acting in an ugly manner. Dr. Spock and I never met. I knew many who raised their kids on Spock's books and can't stand to be around their kids. they are the most ill-behaved people. I avoid them at all possibilities.
