Tough Love vs. Smacking. Good Argument.
Most people think it improper to smack children, so I tried other methods to control my kids when they had one of 'those moments'.
One that I always found effective was for me to just take the child for a car ride.
Some say it's the vibration from the car, others say it's the time away from any distractions such as TV, Video Games, Computer, IPod, etc.
Either way, my kids usually calmed down and stopped misbehaving after our car ride together.
Eye to eye contact helps a lot too..
I've had equal success with grandchildren, nieces, and nephews ...
In case you would like to try the technique, I've included a photo below of a session with my son:
