Discipline is a means to educate children. But not everything is acceptable when it comes to punishment. Here’s what you should avoid if you don’t want punishment to backfire.
- Don’t withhold food: Food is tied to the survival instinct, and denying it creates anxiety and hostility in the child. If you want to take a measure related to their behavior at the table, you could decide that they eat alone or remove something superfluous like dessert.
- Don’t withhold affection: Sending the message “If you behave like this, I won’t love you anymore” or, more subtly, constantly scolding them, creates insecurity that lasts long-term and deeply affects the child’s psyche.
- Avoid emotional blackmail: You should avoid all tactics that induce guilt feelings, such as “You’re making mommy suffer” or “If you loved me…”
- The child should not feel inadequate or bad: It’s important that, even when you scold, you reject only the behavior, not the child, because rejecting the child offends and triggers a negative reaction. Therefore, try to avoid the child responding defensively, which would cancel all efforts to convince them.
