Gotcha. That would be a "no" on the physical discipline, then. I would caution you that revoking privileges for too long can backfire as the only punishment--children are notoriously bad at long-term thinking, and if they can't realistically see the end of the punishment, they don't think it matters if they do something that makes it longer because they can't see the end of it anyway. Well, hopefully things will improve, and the tougher love will work.
