Coming from a point where there is a lot being said about spanking and how kids ate calling cops on their parents, while at the same time and because of the new era of digital influencers we, parents are more the only role models for our kids, and they learn about freedom at all its types at schools, at the movies, with the cartoons, at church, with relatives…what can we do when we are confronted with bad behaviours such us disobedience, lack of respect, selfishness, lying, etc.?

I don’t have a kid but the way my elders sister talk to his kid is so lovely, he call for them advice them as a mother can talk to his own children, talk to them in a motherly way,teach them the Bible, tell them about God, tell them about sin,good and bad..if there do something bad,she will call for them in a calm way advice them that these things is not good so don’t do it again
I’m no parent but I usually see my cousins sit their kids down and speak to them gently and softly, showing the kids that it’s okay if they did something wrong or if they feel a certain way and then explaining to the child why they should not do such a thing again. Also asking the child why they did something or why they feel a certain way (example, anger etc) can help parents and children understand one another.
Definitely a good strategy. However we cannot use the same measure to different problems and expect the same results. It may work but what are the odds…
That’s true, And every child is different, what works for one might not work for another, but it’s work a try.
Discipline as expressed in the Bible has many aspects—guidance, instruction, training, reproof, correction, and even punishment. Discipline should be motivated by love.
When reprimanding young children, it’s important to be calm, firm, and consistent. Use simple language to explain why their behavior was not acceptable and suggest an alternative. Avoid using physical punishment and instead focus on logical consequences like time-outs or taking away privileges. Remember to show love and support after the discipline to help them understand that while you may not like their behavior, you still care for them.
