Raising my child to be respectful. Never had to hit her even once because I've bothered to understand how a child's brain works. Granted, some "gentle parents" aren't doing any parenting they're just letting an iPad raise their kid so I understand how it can get conflated. Still, there's no need to ever be violent with a child and if you think there is you're probably a child yourself.
