The gentle discipline book : how to raise co-operative, polite and helpful children

Ockwell-Smith, Sarah2017
Books
Discipline is a vital part of child-rearing, but many parents misunderstand how to use it and attempt to control their child's behaviour via a combination of punishment and motivation. Yet while this traditional approach may appear to produce quick results, it can potentially damage the child and, in the long-term, leave parents with a far worse problem than they had initially. This book analyses common 'discipline' techniques and explains why so many are ineffective. It focuses on helping parents understand why children misbehave and how to respond in a way that will help them work with - rather than against - their child.
