They are also more responsible and have a strong feeling of self-confidence. Parents and caregivers who offer their little ones with old-fashioned discipline are better placed to develop the future of the children. Such children grow up knowing what wrong and repercussions of making mistakes are (Baron, 2005). The “harsh” aspect of old fashioned discipline is, therefore, important because it instills discipline in children and they grow up knowing the differences between good and bad. The discipline system has an ability to mold better adults unlike the other form of punishment because of the self-control, confidence and responsibility in harbors. Children who undergo the old fashioned discipline end up being hardworking and fruitful because of the sense of responsibility in …show more content…
Using both models find it important that parents and caregivers make the children understand why they are being disciplined. Before disciplining, the children should be given attention so that they know what is being done. Both the old and modern fashion remain good discipline forms because they both communicate directly about what is not acceptable and what is good. References Baron, N. S. (2005).

There is much controversy over the correct disciplinary actions for kids. If parents discipline their kids too little, they could turn out to be spoiled and entitled, but if they discipline them too much, the kids could become rebellious and act out more often. Experts do not have a specific answer as to which strategy is most effective when teaching a child right from wrong. Although, new studies have shown that numerous parents are very unknowledgable about how quickly their child develops, which can lead to disciplinary problems. In Belinda Luscombe’s article “Most Parents Who Spank Their Kids Say it Doesn’t Work” from June 8, 2016 Time Magazine, the author effectively uses logos for its appeal to reason, and pathos to further convey the information across as to why parents
...ow to behave and become an upstanding citizen (Dodson). If a child is not disciplined for improper actions, the child is more likely to develop behavior problems and illnesses such as ADHD, while a child who is properly disciplined is more likely to grow into a better-behaved individual (Shute). Block also argues that using corporal punishment on children will teach them to be abusive towards family, friends, and partners later in life.
Because the beliefs, education and cultures of people vary so much, along with the age of the child, methods of child discipline vary widely. The topic of child discipline involves a wide range of fields such as parenting, behavioural analysis, developmental psychology, social work and various religious perspectives. Advances in the understanding of parenting have provided a background of theoretical understanding and practical understanding of the effectiveness of parenting methods.
Each parent is different; they all have different ways in parenting and disciplining their children. One’s own parenting style is usually derived from the way one was raised or the society one lives in. Parenting styles include authoritative, authoritarian, and permissive, and it is very important to know which style one falls in because it can have an effect on how one’s child grows up to be and develops. Authoritative parenting would be the better parenting style because it is in the middle of the parenting styles; it is not at the extreme ends of the spectrum. It can be very beneficial to parents to understand that how one raises their children can give them a foundation for good development for years to come.
The punishment gets more intense when the child keeps breaking a rule. Some children don’t fully understand why they shouldn’t break a rule that’s why I feel that some continue to keep breaking a rule after told not to. In schools today some teachers keep a track of the children behaviors. Some have a chart which is red, yellow, and green every child starts out on the green part but when some children start to break rules the teacher will move a clip up to yellow which means they have a warring and if they keep breaking the rule they will be moved up to red which means they are getting a phone call home. When most children get up to yellow they start to act good so that they can me moved back down to green. I have seen this when I use to help teach a 2nd and 3rd grade class and this does really work for some kids. For children internal control they start to monitor their self’s and you as parents and teachers you hope that the children can and will develop their own behavior. For children’s guidance approach is when the teachers help the children to understand the rules, why to not break the rules and what will be the outcome if a rule is broken. It’s hard for some of the teachers or parents to teach their children to not break a rule because all the child will do is continue to keep breaking the rules and that puts stress on the teachers and parents. In the authoritative style which is self-control for the children. It really god to teach children to have self-control. You start to let the children make decisions on different stuff when they are little starting a three years old. For example you should let the children to decide on what they want either a cookie or an apple. You can also have them at ages four and up to start letting them decide on what they want to wear for that day. By having the children do this at an early age they will start to
It can be said for most parents that they want their children to grow up to be successful contributing members of society. Being a parent is a difficult, yet rewarding task. But why do some types of parenting result in juvenile delinquency while others find success. There are four generally recognized parenting styles and are categorized: authoritarian, permissive, neglectful, and authoritative. This essay will break down the various styles, its type(s) of discipline and effectiveness.
When a teacher practice their knowledge about misbehavior and mistaken behavior. Teacher can help children to gain a sense of independence, autonomy, and self-esteem. Rather than choose to punishment children, they may develop low self-esteem or think they are bad. Another discipline is help children with common early childhood situations for example; potty training, sleeping, eating. Rather than children received orders to develop those situation, for example; “You have to eat, you have to sleep right now, you have to…” Teacher can use positive approach to teach a child self-control and confidence. Rather than sees misbehavior and what the child does
Numerous people believe that children hate discipline, but actually they find security and comfort in the structure of discipline. Children actually want discipline, they want and need to know that there is someone who cares enough and loves them enough to intentionally help them grow as an individual. There are many ways to appropriately discipline children, including time-outs, physical discipline, and even monotonous work.

Physical discipline is often misinterpreted by physical punishment. A child needs to be taught how to be disciplined but it is not necessary to punish the child in order to achieve discipline. Some strategies that can bring physical discipline are: 1. Positive reinforcement should be used to help the child. Positive reinforcement would bring out the positive behavior of a child.
It is up to the parents to decide how they want to discipline their child. Major influences on how to discipline a child come from the media, friends, elders, and even books. Most parents choose their method of discipline based on how they were raised as a child. In most cases, it all depends on the ethnicity and culture you were born into. According to Child Rearing Practices in Different Cultures, some cultures believe that the father should be the sole disciplinarian, others believe that the role should be shared equally between the mother and father (Everydaylife.com).
Discipline is intended to cease misbehavior in the classroom. Effective classroom management procedures contribute to an environment that enhance learning and reduce discipline problems (Edwards, 2004). The goal of discipline is to help students learn to control their own behavior. Effective teachers apply various disciplinary techniques that help in curtailing misbehavior and promote self-discipline in students (Charles, 1996). Effective discipline is emotionally disconnected from student actions (Henley, Ramsey and Algozzine, 1999). According to Dreikurs, discipline is a process in which students learn to impose reasonable limits on themselves (Charles, 1996).
Parenthood is a huge factor in any child’s life, If you were to ask me, a parent decides who we are without either the child or the adult knowing it. The parent’s role also requires discipline, and this is where things get rough in parenting, as so I’ve been told. When the child is disciplined enough and in the right way, they are willing to pass this wisdom on to their children in the future. But when a child is discipl...
Positive Discipline is a concept that can be extremely misinterpreted and when it is misused it can cause more harm than good. A common form of discipline for children is punishment and it is widely used because it is the believed to be very effective. “However, discipline comes from the Latin word discipulus or disciplini, which means a follower of truth, principle, or a venerated leader” (Nelson, pg. 15). Punishment in itself is not a positive method nor is it a positive form of leadership to follow or exert. (Quote) By eliminating punishment, using the kind but firm technique, and having mutual respect, child abuse can be significantly reduced or even prevented.
That also affects the child academic performance as well. Another example Seltzer mentions was corporal punishment leads to increased aggression, which in this case the child is disruptive or destructive in different setting like school and other occasions. Moreover, the child later on in life is correlated with drugs and alcohol abused. In the ending of the article, Seltzer discusses that non-corporal forms of punishment are not the answer either. If the child is still given aggressive response, rather its manipulating, yelling, reprimanding, threatening or verbal reactions to the children’s misbehavior, it can have a significant negative consequence on the child’s mental and emotional development. Seltzer gives ways for a parent to use less negative response when approaching a child bad behavior, for example; more respectful of the child in letting them know in advance which specific behavior that is bad to do, carried out unemotionally and finally, more appropriate with the unacceptable behavior. Even though these are still punishment, however the child will receive the message that these performances are not wrong but
