Your early parenting efforts are based on your experience as a child. Either you repeat your parent's behavior or you purposely choose not to. For eg. if you were spanked as a child, you spank your child or you purposely do not spank (and end up a screamer). Either way you are following a family pattern of behavior. Be aware of patterns of behavior.
