I feel bad…
Before I explain I don’t do this at all hardly almost never. I’m over at my mom’s house for the day and my son who’s (21 months) ran outside the door onto the deck. (Slipped past my mom who was walking out) Climbing on the circle shaped table that’s wobbly and stood up on it a couple times (todays the first day he decided he wanted to start climbing the table) before I took him off of the table, I told him no, I looked him in the eyes sternly told him no and lightly tapped his hand with mine. Opened up the pack and play we haven’t used in months and put him in there with his toys… he’s trying to climb the pack and play to get out. I feel so bad

@Alexandra I just feel bad that I lightly slapped his hand because that is something I vowed to myself I’d never do to my children because I grew up getting spanked and hit a lot
Try explaining to him why he can’t do that and just redirect to other toys

It’s natural to feel that way but you’re doing the right thing! It’s so hard to be a disciplinarian but we can’t let our littles get away with everything, especially when they’re putting themselves in danger. Try not to feel so bad 🫶
