Discipline Children without Physical Punishment
Quite impressive to have a study include parents, who had been retrained to Discipline Children in a way minimizing or eliminating physical punishment. Words are powerful. Replacing the term, ‘physical punishment,’ with the phrase, Discipline Children,’ seems to begin to change or reformulate belief systems and thinking patterns. This piece is quite interesting, and it is from our neighbors to the north. “Physical punishment of children potentially harmful to their long-term development”“An analysis of research on physical punishment of children over the past 20 years indicates that such punishment is potentially harmful to their long-term development, states an article in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal).” “In a trial of an intervention designed to reduce difficult behaviour in children, when parents in more than 500 families were trained to reduce their use of physical …” “Physical punishment is also associated with a variety of mental health problems, such as…” Click here to visit the original source of this post Discipline Children without Physical Punishment
Children today are well aware of the legal ramifications of using physical punishment, especially in the US. As children grow older they not only are subject to the after affects of physical punishment, but they tend to have negative long-term relationships with parents who have used this to Discipline Children. Aggression in Children is in part a result of the use of physical punishment to Discipline Children. Also, see the post, ‘Aggression in Children.’

Teenage Behavior and Human Rights
I can see myself on both sides of this issue. Tricky subject this. “Justices hear search case”“… school officials crossed the line when they asked a teenage girl to submit to a personal search.” “The girl was a student at a Brunswick County alternative school, where students with drug and behavior problems made up the bulk of the classes.” “An appeals court ruled last year the searches were “degrading, demeaning and highly intrusive.”” “The justices left with no indication of how they would rule. Rulings can sometimes take months.” “The justices also are being asked to weigh the rights of alternative school students, who often have been pulled out of mainstream classes because they have behavioral problems or a history of drug abuse.” Click here to visit the original source of this post ______________________________________________________________________________________ Teenage Behavior and Human Rights
How can students, who have histories of violence, drug abuse, and risky Teenage Behaviors, be kept safe without allowing for searches? Yet, if this was my teenage daughter, or if I were this teenager, I would not want a body search of any kind. Alternative school students have already been exposed to various forms of abuse, if through their own choices or through victimization thus the outrageous Teenage Behaviors. This is worth the read.

Parenting and a Child Welfare Crisis
I am wondering how the statistics Kathy Gyngell quotes measure with our Child Welfare System in the US. I do know that our system does not boast a success rate that is truly acceptable. Read her Blog Post and judge for yourself. “Our moral cowardice means we care for our children no better than the Victorians”“Only now are we beginning to see and acknowledge the scale of the crisis – a crisis of child neglect,inadequate, neglectful and abusive ‘parenting’ as witnessed by the potty training saga, neglect which to date has not been identified as such.” Click here to visit the original source of this post ______________________________________________________________________________________ Parenting and a Community Moral Compass
She further stated that the “government” has used the politically correctness of dealing with drug abusers and addicts. By placing little or no blame on those addicts who are parents for their own illegal or immoral behaviors, thus creating the acceptance of child abuse and neglect. She reports: “These are the uncaring and careless values of the time.” Wow, strong statements. She goes on to talk about social workers’ attitudes and responsibilities falling prey to the “tyranny of political correctness.” Read this article, if the subject interests you. It is sad to hear such troubles facing children even across an ocean.

How to Discipline Young Children
Maureen Ryan an About.com Guide provides some valid and help tips to Discipline Young Children. When faced with the mind-numbing, 
nerve scratching terror that small young child can bring, having a few good solid and effective tips is a much-needed relief. If your toddler does not bring on these extreme reactions, more power to you and these tips. I say Parents can use all the help they can get.
Remember that humor is a great tool all by itself. Lighten up, that’s my tip for today.
Seriously, the tips for Disciplining Young Children found in this material will be an asset in your everyday dealing with your toddler. These tips are age appropriate, timely, simple, and effective.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
“Teaching young children how to control their own behavior is a daily challenge for parents. There is a lot you can learn from experts and books, but until you’re in the trenches, it’s hard to know what will work for you and your child. So what’s a mom or dad who’s faced with toddler tantrums, defiance, or general mischievousness to do?”
“Help guide your child’s behavior and avoid meltdowns and problems by using these key rules for disciplining young children.”

_________________________________________________________________________________________
As with all Parenting, Disciplining Young Children requires patience, practice, and being available for your young children.
These tips are a good start on Common Sense Parenting. The part that does not fit into common sense is expecting more of our toddlers than they can developmentally provide. Toddlers operate on a whole other set of internal rules. Learning these internal operations of our toddlers can go a long way in cultivating a set of effective parenting tools to use, when we discipline young children.

Parenting Classes for Celebrities | Halle Berry | Gabriel Aubry
Parenting Classes and Celebrities, this is always news. It seems that many people are happy to see others struggle with day-to-day Parenting Problems. This celebrity news story about Parenting Classes for celebrities by Coco George demonstrates that even being in the critical eye of the public does not stop Parents from creating all kinds of chaos around children and the family.

Parenting The Obedient Child
It seems to be a universal unstated understanding of parents that the Obedient Child is the public relations poster child for Successful Parenting. And I thought the goal was to raise children to be well adjusted, healthy, educated, and successful adults. The information below is just the tip of the iceberg about the ills of Parenting for the Obedient Child. Read on; Annalisa Barbieri has written some very interesting and thought provoking ideas. It shows that even across the ocean Parents have universal concerns.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Two stories caught my attention recently. One was a report that breastfed babies are more challenging in their behaviour and the other was about a new book called French Children Don’t Throw Food: about how French children apparently behave really well, in restaurants and just generally.
(Hmm. Can I pause here to tell you a story? My aunt was French. She had twins. She’d carry round a little whip – actually several little leather straps of about 6″ in length, all coming together into a wooden handle. She would hit my cousins on the back of their legs if they stepped even a tiny bit out of line. The word I remember her saying the most was “arrête”. But it is absolutely true to say I never once saw them throw food.) Most parenting books are about how to get children to do things well. By well, read obediently. When and how you – the adult – want them to do something: eat well, pee in the potty, sleep well (that’s the big one), behave well. The aim, it would seem, is to raise compliant children. Because, according to these books, obedient children = successful parents, disobedient = head hanging failures. But actually is an obedient child cause for concern or celebration?”

______________________________________________________________________________________________________
It is not every day that Successful Parenting information has humor and shock in the same material. I still see images of that French mother with the whip! But seriously folks… I certainly remember my frustration rising, when one of my kids would just not follow ‘the program.’ Of Course, this always happens when time is short, there is a deadline, like getting to school on time, and one of my kids would not obey. Absolute obedience is a myth. The issue is finding the best parenting solution to avoid and minimize the unruly behaviors in the future. Perhaps one of Annalisa Barbieri’s thoughts will give you the answer you are looking for.

Successful Parenting is Soothing not Provoking
Beth Pratt comes right to the point about her thoughts on Successful Parenting. Parents all too often unnecessarily and inadvertently incite behavior problems with young children that could otherwise have been avoided. I recently experienced such a display of poor behavior in the Jewel Food Store. This small child’s voice could be heard over the entire front half of the store. Everyone in the checkout lines were looking around to see what was happening. At first I thought something was terribly wrong, so I looked around to see what was going on… I finally could make out what the 4 year-old was saying. He was screaming and throwing himself on the floor, as he kept repeating, ‘I want to have it!’ ‘I need it!’ ‘I have to have it!’ And so forth… I’m sure all the nerve endings of every parent and grandparent in the entire store were on edge. This type of scene can be avoided or at least minimized.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________
Successful Parenting is always a result of good decision making, planning, and action. In discussions with Parents, I have discovered that many times this type of incident is caused by either a lack of the Parents taking action prior to and in anticipation of the natural behaviors of young children, or relying on irrational expectations of the maturity level, age related abilities, and personality differences of each child. Keep learning and discovering.

Parenting 101 Success: Our Mission
They are doing this today, all the while guarding their sanity. (Humor is a great tool.)
Successful parenting has always been difficult. Today more than ever the road parents have to follow is spotted with relationship and responsibility ‘pot holes,’ both for the parents and the children.
The economy, job loss, retirement worries, the crime rates in larger cities and even the suburbs, quality education, home safety, protecting the children, divorce, extended family members, illness, and the over whelming flood of information are only some of the difficult areas of family life today. And, they fill all our lives with stress and worry, especially about our children’s futures, and peace in our families.
