I'm probably gonna get yelled at from every corner but for my kids what worked was spanking
I'm aware many of you are against this which is your decision which i respect, however i am simply telling you what has worked.
Spanking is not always used, the method i use for younger children (up to 6) is put a child in time out, if they move simply put them back with the warning 'if you move again you'll get a spanking' and if they move again before they are allowed to then they get spanked.
The spanking is never particularly hard, just enough to let them know they have done wrong. It is rare that the spanking ever happens because they know that it's not pleasant.
If it ever gets to that point though i'll take them over my knee and swat them a couple of times with a wooden spoon.
Trust me people it really does work!
