1. BWA!
No but when she was a baby, I did put velcro strips all over her clothing and on the wall so she would stay in one place while I got stuff done.

2. Nope...
But I opened up on him with a super-soaker full of ice water once.

5. It's a lot less noisy than pepper-spraying them.
And it doesn't leave the obvious bruises that a good old fashioned beating results in.

8. It is purely out of morbid curiosity that I clicked on this thread
and it's a perverse fascination that made me post in it.

9. NO! But I think a smack upside the head or on the butt is good!
Tazers are best left to the cops, but children of all ages have been left to do their own thing for far too long. They have no respect for authority at home, in school, or anywhere else.

I have no problem with smacking their butt, when they are small, or a whack upside the head when they're older.

16. Good thing you're not a freeper
If you were, you wouldn't know which end was the head end or which end was the butt end, and hitting either wouldn't make much of a difference anyway.

19. tazers hadn't yet been developed when my daughter was young
...so we had to use a lampcord with the wires exposed. It was pretty primitive but effective nonetheless.
