   It’s always tough to discipline your kid whilst you know the child is going through trauma. However you would rather be bad mama than ruin them in their live forever. I always tell my gal this ” I don’t mind if you regards me as bad mama, but now I need you to ….”. Afterawhile, she starts to understand I’m doing this for her own good. So well

   I know the feeling- and it’s even worse when you’re a single mom. You ALWAYS have to be the badguy! It’s so frustrating. As your previous commenter said though- you are doing the right thing. Try to always turn the negative of the punishment into a positive. If my son jumps on the couch, I put him in a time out. I ask him what he did wrong, and when he replies that he jumped on the couch, I ask him what he should have done instead. (ie- asking for the trampoline.) I praise him for giving the right answer. Then, when his time out is over I reward him with praise for handling the time out so well. He’ll almost always give me a hug and say thank you, which is odd to me since I just diciplined him- but it works! I know your cutie is little, but he’ll get there eventually.
