Reply To: To Petch or not to Petch

hmmm…good question Goq. I think it’s when you don’t react to a situation on impulse and out of anger. Rather, you witness bad behavior, take a few seconds to calm down and conscioussly make an effort to handle the child in a rational and loving way. i.e. even if you petch it is done with ZERO anger and only as a lesson for the child- but the child has to KNOW that the petch is coming out of that love and not through anger.
