Matt is seven now and had some problems with discipline in the past. I was out of state during his first few years while I served in the Air Force. When I was able to move back, it was a difficult because I had to rebuild a relationship that was interrupted. He was spoiled by his mom's family and needed a good spanking on occasion (maybe a dozen times since I've been home). However, I didn't do it all the time so it was very effective. Because of that, he is a well behaved boy.
On the "children should be seen and not heard" line, I do believe in it to an extent.
