I’m glad she didn’t hit him because when you grow up hitting your kids, they’re just gonna hit you back when they’re grown. A 14 year old boy is strong enough to hurt his mother if he wanted to.
It also creates a much bigger problem because it teaches them physical violence is an acceptable outlet for anger and frustration and an acceptable act in general.
How are you going to teach your child that hitting people is bad if you - yourself - are hitting them?
