Dad causes controversy asking about 'appropriate punishment' for 8-year-old who cracked a 75 inch TV screen: 'Praise him for reducing family screen time'

Becoming a parent opens up a lifetime's worth of difficult decisions, and when you're raising your kids a lot of these relate to behavior management. It's inevitable that children are going to act up at times, or even most of the time. How you respond to that can impact them massively.

This is part of the discussion that was raised when a dad queried the internet on how to proceed after his 8-year-old did something wrong. Revealing how the kid had broken a 75-inch TV screen and that he was searching for an "appropriate punishment", some people were more than ready to open up their opinions on how he should react. However, others felt that now was the time to take a step back and think a little more about the whole incident and the process of getting past it. There are not always easy answers when it comes to parenting.
