It's not giving in --- it's just trying to do family things where everyone is happy --- what's the point in taking a kid to a restaurant or other place he isn't going to enjoy and then whacking him around? My feeling is that it's not important to force kids to go to places they don't enjoy --- if they want to go and can behave then I'm all for kids showing up anywhere.

When will you teach them that sometimes they have to go (and behave) in places that they don't enjoy ?
