A Nutty Mom

Why do we need to discipline children? Toddlers are at an age where they learn and explore new things. Can we leave them at that time? We can but we should not. Toddler stage is a good stage to start teaching your child. Because they learn and absorb things at this stage, it is the best time to put the information you want your child to have.

Do you want your child to get along well with other children?
Do you want your child to know their responsibilities?
Do you want your child to grow into adults behaved well and polite?
Do you want to conserve your energy and avoid the frustration of the end of you and spend more quality time with your child?

If your answer is yes then most of disciplining the child of today is the way to go.

Thing about discipline is that you actually teach them proper behavior differences and bad behavior. When disciplining children, you guide them but do not limit them in terms of learning them.

For example, I’m not going to stop my daughter from making a mess when he paints. But I will make sure that he was clean after that. I will let my children watch cartoons for half an hour but when I told him to turn off the TV when it was time to go take a bath, he’ll do it. It’s called discipline.

Discipline is not about to threaten or punish your children. This is a mutually beneficial understanding between you and your child.

Toddlers need guidance. They must follow some rules so that they know what they can do and what they can not do. They should know their routines and appropriate behavior is expected but is not limited.
