Parenting taught me that discipline is everything—if you don't set boundaries, someone else will. You learn, grow, and adapt. 🤷🏻♀️ #ParentLife #LifeLessons

I don’t like the way she only hit one of the babies
parenting is not for the weak 😭😂😂
if my future baby ever slaps me I'm going to slap them back because who are you slapping?
Ionk y’all they just babies…
If my baby shits on me, I’m shitting on them back
Me against my future son
Perfect teaching I was raised like that and turned out beautiful
the first baby after the vid baby: that didn't hurt fr
This is actually funny
the first one is me and my brother all the time😂😂
😂
Unfortunately, some children were from abusive households or severe bullying that wasn’t noticed or helped. There is a big difference between correction with consequences to actions & abusive actions. It’s horrible for those abused who a large % of the time turned out to be abusive later in life. My parents both had 1 abusive parent & refused to ever do that. Me & my siblings were spanked & corrected only if that punishment required that level of punishment. We weren’t abused. We all turned out very respectful of our parents & very close to them. I agree with corrective punishment if they don’t listen to verbal corrections or attempting soft corrections. Sometimes being soft doesn’t work. Sometimes they need to learn the hard way.
😂😂
didn't like the one with the Asian mom with 2 babies. she was letting the one kid beat the crap outta her, but the smaller one hits her like one time and she slaps him..not good. I'm sensing some serious favoritism in this situation 🥺 poor baby🥺🥺🥺
That's what you do.. it is taking care of business. putting them in their place.
If my child slaps me, I got the ruler and I’m tearing that ass up are you either going to that wall and squat ur choice pick one 😘
Sum of them clips ain’t giving no lil claps they beating
Hello 🥰
Travis Trit.... No one knows you bro 😂
Why would she drop the baby like that what is wrong with her I know what isn’t gentle parenting and that is just not it she made the baby fall on her stomach and it could’ve ended bad
all the parents on here are bad, thought I was tripping till I realized what app I was on😭😂
I'm with you 💯.
😭
this is awesome! I called myself raising my hand at 15, at my mom. my Dad and mom beat my ass!... instantly! 😂😂😂
It’s the only way they will understand the lesson 🥰
they gone try to get y'all for abuse 😭😭😭😭 y'all know we can't do this on record 😂😂😂😂
you have to hit them back...that's how they learn 😅😅
if i ever found out my significant other hit our child/children like this, they’d get the shit beat out of them. i couldn’t imagine laying a hand on my child like that ever, there are so many better and smarter and more mature ways to handle children that act like that. putting your hand on a child should NEVER EVER be the “right or correct answer”. absolutely fucking not.
when they realize baby can get put in the corner 💃🕺😂
yea this happened one time lol an I nipped that an never had that problem agin 😁😁 ooooweee
finally some good parenting
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽❤️❤️❤️
😂😂😂😂😂
real time consequences. this is old school parenting
poor LuLu that knocked her breath out , I feel it was a little too much while she had a push up pop lid in her mouth but I'm assuming it was accidentally a little too rough but all the others I understood ✌️
I approve every one mom and dad teach they lil azzes early before they embarrass you later on.
That's right don't start that hitting mess
now THIS is parenting!!!! Yes!!!
Whoever made up gentle parenting needs to get slapped themselves
They were all great, but knocking your kids from out underneath is not a smart move and could damage their brains.
that's how they learn 😂
😂😳😳😳😳😳
ok cause those little hits be hurting 😂😂😂😂
I didn’t like the last two very much 😬😶
Hell yeah
That was not funny to me
She have my name at the Christmas tree 🥰
wtf why she hit the other baby but th other one punching her...
You got to stop them when they’re young because once they become teenagers get it they’ll be doing the same thing so if you teach respect you get respect if you don’t teach respect you get run over like a tow truck
😳😳😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Drop kick them? I do that to my 3 year old brother, hes so stiff now! Satire 😭
I mean I actually learned when I got spanked. Everything else was just brushed off. Ig I was a shitty kid💔💔
We had to grow up like this so what’s the problem??
I like it
some of this for some of that 👍
I had two boys never, never had I once had to use physical abuse to teach them a lesson. These were not just "love taps". Most of what the children are doing was taught by the parents in the first place. 😠😡🤬
That’s ole school bringing up I see it’s still some parents that get the assignment 😂😂😂😂😂
kids gotta learn.
kids are like cats. they hit you for no damn reason at all lol
I understand teaching your toddler boundaries with alittle tap but that last baby was too tiny for that!! 😳
This what most blond chicks needed growing up 💔
learn them young... it ain't nice... an yet Gen z run rapid with disrespect.
I love it
Punishment should not hurt the child, but embarrass the child. NEVER "let" your child hit or kick you and act like it's funny. That will come back to haunt you in many many ways later in their adolescence. Facts...
