Over a cup of coffee, my beloved mom started discussing about effective parenting. She said that in order for a child to become a responsible, obedient, and disciplined adult, it may be necessary to not spare him with the rod. As for me, I don't want to do that to my Christian. I believe that kids nowadays can become more open to discussion. They can easily absorb your point, if you can just keep the communication lines open. To stress my point, I've even talked to my mom the pointers I got from my readings. But then, it also occured to me the question: Is there really a need to change parenting strategies?
