Offer Teenagers Positive, Age-Appropriate Discipline
This is our second edition of the online newsletter! Here is a quote:
Parenting expert Jim Burns says the goal of discipline is to teach kids responsibility, not to evoke obedience.
“Our job is not to always prevent our children from making mistakes but rather to make certain they learn
from their mistakes,” he says. This needs to be done in a relaxed, respectful way, and it’s the parent’s job to
establish this tone. “Shame-based parenting, when parents attempt to influence their kids’ behavior through
shaming, nagging, and negativity, simply doesn’t work in the long run,” Burns says.
