IMHO....there is no right or wrong way to punish a child. All kids are different, and respond to conditions differently.

My mom could stop me in my tracks and make me wonder WTF did I just do with just a look.

What I HATED even more was when she would give me the silent treatment if I acted up.

My wife and I have found that the silent treatment worked quite well on our own kids also, but they responded to it differently. It bothered my son (like me) a lot more when we wouldn't talk to him than it did our daughter.

Babies learn from trial, error, practice and encouragement.

I boy who falls from a tree or fall off a bike isn't going to stop riding bike or climb trees. He'll learn to do both better.
