Door Slamming kid

by BlahBlah

My 9 year old son is out of hand, slams doors, will not brush his teeth, problem every day going to school, yells, etc. If I did this as a kid, my father gave me a smack in the head, and problem corrected.

We cannot do that now in this day and age with fear of getting arrested, what do I do? I thought about boot camp, but my wife is against it. I DO NOT want to use any ADHD medications, I'm starting to think it is caused by too much processed sugars and foods in his diet.
