Melissa B asked:


Mostly I am curious how you would discipline your elementary aged child (K-5) for not finishing their chores, but you didn’t notice until after they went somewhere for the weekend (i.e. trip, sleepover, other parent’s house, etc).

skipabeat asked:


I just want to hear what discipline techniques that people use that work.I was told I’m a good mother but you don’t discipline right. I’m tired of repeating myself over and over (when they are doing something they are not suppose to) and they just act like I haven’t said a word. Anyhow as a parent what do you do to get your to listen to the word no?

Taylor

daisy asked:

Capricornius asked:


The child is 11 years old and stays with us for the summer, sometimes disrespect is witnessed by my biological children and spouse. Mostly just talking back, item destruction ( like kicking or hitting a wall repeatedly or tapping the car window). For five years he has tantrumed this way, at times he is disrespectful to his own father, and to me it seems that he gets away with it, because I grew up getting popped in the mouth if I were to roll my eyes, suck my teeth or say so!. Are there other ways to discipline an unruly child that are actually effective?

I am doin a research paper of the conflicts between poor discipline and child abuse. I am also tryin to determine if two are easily mistaken.

I would really like to know what you think about this topic. In my culture which is Hmong. Its believed that childrens remember and leanr faster by hitting them. Is this true? Because I’m kinda skeptical about this.

Angel

TaDaa! asked:


My sister told me that it’s hardest for her at my parents house. Whenever they try to put their kids in timeout, someone always rescues them.

Where do you have trouble trying to discipline your child(ren)? How do you deal with it?

momma2 asked:


Does your child’s principal handle discipline well? or are they lazy on the subject or to tough?

Landon

Traveler asked:


Should spanking be used to discipline your child at any circumctanses? Is the saying Spare the stick, spoil the kid. outdated as woman in the kitchen? Are methods like Quiet Time or denying previleges from a child much more effective means to discipline a child? Should modern parents even bother to discipline their children?
not talking about beating. Spanking. Palm to the behind just enough to let the child know he or she has done something wrong.
