RE: Should we punish our children?

in #life7 years ago

I know that times have changed, people are doing more talking than when I came along. Also children are different, the bible says the each generation is smarter than the next and I believe that. So different way of discipline is the key, as long as there is some form of it. Learning to respect others is the other factor. Never stop asking the questions and talking about a better ways and share love with children. One thing my mother always told us, if you are going to physically discipline a child use something other than your hands because hands are used for love and that is something that something that you never want to confuse a child with.

I totally agree that each generation is smarter! Discipline is very important, but a lot of people confuse discipline with punishment when they are completely different things. Discipline is about teaching, about showing children the right way, and every single child has the capacity to learn and to grow without punishment. Thank you for your comment.
