Let’s dive right in! How to rethink disciplineĮvidently, the word “punishment” shouldn’t be synonymous with “discipline.” Paradoxically, that is precisely the reason why Siegel and Bryson chose it: they wanted to reframe the whole discussion, to reclaim the word “discipline” along with its original meaning, to inspire caregivers to start thinking of discipline as “one of the most loving and nurturing things” they can do for kids.Īnd the first lesson is this: there’s no such thing as one-size-fits-all discipline.
With them, we explore the ultimate child-raising challenge: discipline. Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson are acclaimed artists. But same as any other form of mastery, parenting can be perceived as an art. It’s not easy, especially if you realize that we live in a world full of distractions, which evidently makes the process of nurturing your child a daunting task.
Are you open to at least thinking about a different approach to discipline? One that helps you achieve your immediate goals of getting your kids to do the right thing in the moment, as well as your longer-range goals of helping them become good people who are happy, successful, kind, responsible, and even self-disciplined?
