Importance of Scolding

Why is scolding important? Scolding works together with spanking to produce a greater outcome - an outsome that is greater than a scolding alone (which is perceived as nagging) or a spanking alone (which is perceived as an emotionless exercise). Scolding dramatically enhances the effectiveness of spanking for several reasons:

1. Scolding can help to peel the layers of misbehavior. The causes of bad attitudes and misbehavior are often complex. His misbehavior can be like an onion - as you peel one layer, another layer is revealed. Each discipline session may remove one layer of his negative attitude. Do not give up! You will eventually reach the center.
2. Scolding can have a healing effect. Have you ever heard that truth has a healing effect? Truth can be healing with it is given with love. You may be angry when you are scolding him, but the entire discipline process is based on love and trust. As you work through the process together, you will find healing.
3. Scolding can help connect the spanking to the offense. Scolding reminds your man of his misbehavior. It helps him understand what he did wrong and the fairness of the discipline. You should remind him that you are doing this because you love him and for his own good.
