People who believe that the bible mandates spanking: Do you believe that neurodivergent and special needs kids are exempt from spanking?
Spanking is for a child's own good.People who believe that the bible mandates spanking: Do you believe that neurodivergent and special needs kids are exempt from spanking?
No because I detest violence. My special needs child is paralyzed and I was born to a mom who taught me that hypocrisy was wrong. So I either scold or distract instead. I do not wish to teach them a inappropriate message as there are typically developing people who detest violence completely. I don't approve of hypocrisy at all so no violence. Plus it makes me a bad mom doesn't it?
I agree.Did NOT work on our special needs child whatsoever. He has neurological disorders so there is no way that it is even fair to treat the special needs the same you would a neurotypical. I suggest you seek other ways to "discipline". Many times getting physical with them will ONLY make matter worse. Use words. Be creative. The special needs people are very vulnerable. Understand that.
