Let's be honest. All kids make bad choices, break house rules, and openly defy parental boundaries. It's kind of their job. Our job is to let them know that they've stepped in the proverbial pile of dung—and to make sure they feel the sting of their bad behavior.

In this week's episode, we get real—very real—about disciplining kids. Bonnie gets particularly candid and Ellen loses her mind over spanking. Both of us admit, that like all parents, we are nothing but a series of occasional bad choices punctuated by moments of supreme clarity, nailing this thing we call parenting.
