Six Ways To Discipline Children -- That Work! by feelgoodstuffs(m): 10:47am On Jul 29, 2014
It’s hard to deny the importance of discipline. "Discipline
has to do with civilizing your child so they can live in
society," says psychiatrist Michael Brody, MD. Yet kids
repeatedly test their parents’ limits. When it comes to
disciplining children, there is no quick fix and no magic
bullet.
If you, like many parents, have tried to discipline kids who
don’t want to listen, this article is for you. WebMD asked
parenting experts for tips on finding that nice balance
between disciplining kids without being a drill sergeant or a
pushover.
Discipline Tip # 1: Reward Good Behavior
When punishment is the centerpiece of discipline, parents

If your rules are vague, or discussed only when one has
been broken, your child will have a hard time following
them. "It’s up to the parent to make clear what’s expected
of the child and what isn’t," says Brody, who chairs the
Media Committee of the American Academy of Child and
Adolescent Psychiatry. Be sure to explain the rules of the
house when you can speak clearly and your child is not too
upset to listen.
James Sears, MD, a pediatrician in Southern California,
suggests practicing discipline when it works for you. For
instance, when you have 30 minutes to spare, interrupt your
child’s game and tell her you need help with something. If
she helps, great, do a quick and easy chore together and let
her go back to her game. If she... http://feelgoodstuffs..com/2014/07/six-ways-to-discipline-children-that.html?m=1
