55: Keep Cool & Carry On! Part 2 With Jeanne-Marie Paynel The Art of Parenting

What aspect of positive discipline do you find challenging to apply?

What I Talked About
Connect before correcting Be Firm and kind Decide what you will do Ahead of time Tell children what they CAN do! Be in the YES! Follow Through with what you agreed on Encourage effort & progress, and avoid the “good job!” praise  Create a Positive time out together Get children involved in creating Routines  Take time for TRAINING
Things to Remember
“Effective discipline means that we’re not only stopping a bad behavior or promoting a good one but also teaching skills and nurturing the connections in our children’s brains that will help them make better decisions and handle themselves well in the future.” – Daniel J. Siegel 

“Discipline must come through liberty.” – Dr. Maria Montessori

“Too often we forget that discipline really means to teach, not to punish. A disciple is a student, not a recipient of behavioral consequences.” – Daniel J. Siegel

“A child needs encouragement like a plant needs water.” – Rudolf Dreikurs
