Curious.
Really, if the child is having a real tantrum deserving of punishment, how do you calm him down enough to stick a spoon of anything in his mouth? Sit on his chest? Headlock? Full-Nelson? Tranquilizers? Bad idea imo. Seems unnecessary, if the child is calm enough to open up and swallow. I guess Im nitpicking, but Im with the dissenters here. Just throw him in his room, close the door, and warn him not to come out til he's ready to behave. Repeat as often as necessary.
Works with us.
(For now...lol)
