Same, my mom is a "young" boomber and was beat pretty bad by her dad. She stopped hitting us once we turned four. My dad was a drunk and abusive/toxic. I'm a millennial with a 3-year-old and my wife is pregnant with her with our second. I have never hit my child but I do take shit away. I have cleared out his whole bedroom of stuff he could play with because he kept hitting us. He stopped, now the threat of taking stuff away gets him to correct his behavior. We do lots of timeouts and talks. Imo he's turning into a caring and compassionate little human which is our goal

"I wanna beat your ass but I'm not going to"
I'm a millenial and this is definitely how I feel with my kid.
