Simmerdown Online - Session 10: Corporal Punishment

	Anger Management
Learn to manage anger anywhere, in twelve instructional sessions.

Session 10: Corporal Punishment and Parenting

This is the final session of the SimmerDown Online program, and all the skills we talked about have been covered:

Relaxing
Enduring discomfort
Asserting oneself appropriately
Changing blaming thinking
Hearing the needs of others

For this last session, let's apply all we have learned to a specific kind of situation: parenting. We'll discuss corporal punishment, and review the arguments that are commonly made in favor of spanking kids, to see if they hold water.

Good luck in your future anger work!
