Child discipline is a method used to prevent future behavioral problems in children. The word discipline is defined as imparting knowledge and skill, in other words, to teach.

Being a parent it is our responsibility to discipline our children for them to learn and develop a good character. To teach them to become good citizens that will inspire children in the community.

Discipline is a vital role of every parent that should be done properly which n the right way. Preventing our children from making future behavior problems. This is to share with our kids are learning from our parents during childhood days. Training a child should start at a young age when they can understand what is right and wrong. All the lessons that we impart to them will remain until such time that they become a parent.

For me, parenting should be done in a way that will not violate the rights of every child.

Discipline with love

Discipline is a sign of love for our kids, if they have done something wrong we need to correct them and lead them to the right path in life. Corrections are necessary for teaching by demonstrating the correct response to every action.

Loving our children is more than giving of what they need. It is our responsibility to provide necessities in daily life but it also includes untouchable things like discipline which will last longer. Material things like gifts are good but not to the point that we will become more focused on them while despising our role as a parent.

Talk by heart

Kids will not fully understand when we just shout or yell at them instantly without an explanation. A good conversation will help both parties understand the causes of the problem. Parents should give time to their kids about their feelings and actions to have a good understanding of the main reason. Listen to what they say and not to conclude right away, in this way they learn to give attention to your advice.

Give them a choice

Discipline should not be done by the force to think that parents have the authority to implement certain rules. Choices are good options, in every choice they make will result in particular consequences of their actions.

Do it in private

Discipline should not be done in a shameful way in which make them feel embarrassed with their siblings, friends around them. Talk to them in a room or a place where you can make a good conversation with your child. This will enable them to realize that you respect their feelings for the sake of a good relationship. A private conversation is a way to enhance a deeper awareness about the kids for further development of the child's self - esteem.

Be in the right mind

There are times when we heard our child was doing bad the first reaction that we had is to get angry. It's a normal feeling, but when we do our response based on our emotions we can do something that is not proper. The proper way of approaching our kids when we are in the right mood so that we can think better to prevent unnecessary actions.

Parenting is not an easy task for everyone especially when the parents are not hands-on with their children. The fact is, we will not discipline our children for a long period, for when they become mature and knows how to handle themselves on their own we need to set them free and live their own life. All we can do is to guide them and give advice if they ask for it. That's the reason while our children are young we should learn to discipline them for when they get old they will know better until they become parents too. All the lessons that we share with let them apply to their kids and they can tell stories on how did their parents train them in the way that they should go.

I have met a lot of parents that inspire me on how they manage to train their kids to obey them.

Parenting by modeling

When we say children who have good discipline it begins with parents. Oftentimes the kid's actions were influenced by their parents, like how they talk, what they do when they have a conversation with older people. They will react according to their learning at home. By showing the proper way will just appear with their behavior without any hard enforcement or nagging.

Most of all, we should love our children to develop a lasting influence.
