RE: Children (and Everyone) Often Need Alternative Choices in Order to Correct Misbehavior
Absolutely, my son would be punished by having to sit on the naughty spot for 3 mins (1 min per year of age). After a couple of weeks he would continue to repeat the bad behaviour then go and Place himself on the spot without us having to send him. He decided the punishment was worth it if he could still misbehave. We quickly realised that we were going to have to take a different approach in our parenting and show him the correct way to behave without any negative outcomes.
Great post!
Amazing, that perfectly demonstrates what this is about. Thanks for the feedback. Change requires knowledge, certainly knowledge of others choices if we aren't imagining better alternatives ourselves.
Knowledge is definitely the key. Simply changing is not always going to work either. We had very little success until I took it upon myself to learn some different approaches, some I never would have come on my own. Thanks again for a great post.
