I avoid any physical punishment (although I don't even call it punishment, because that is defining right from wrong). But vinegar is a harmless, yet effective way to let your child know that there are indeed consequences for their actions. Although I don't teach him of right and wrong, i must guide him with actions & consequences. I won't just let him do as he wishes- to an extent, but I always give him options and point out the potential consequences of each.
