Let's revisit why punishments don't work

from How Not to Screw Up Your Kids

I've received lots of emails asking about suitable punishments for specific behaviours, so I thought it was a great time to revisit this episode which was originally released in 2021. Traditional methods of discipline and punishment can lead to power struggles missing the opportunity to teach our children anything and causing family tension. Join me as I guide you through simple do's and don'ts to create routines and structures that yield positive results with your child or teen. Here are the highlights: (1:04) Our children are like buildings (5:30) Appropriate consequences (9:07) Random rewards (12:09) The talk through strategy (15:31) Let children be part of the decision-making process 💚 Let's grow our village together, please share this episode with a friend, colleague or family member that could benefit from some support 💚 Complete my listener poll to let me know what you'd like in future episodes 💚 You can watch the Bucket Emptying Episodes on YouTube 💚 Access the free resources mentioned in the episodes 💚 Join our campaign One Million Moments to reduce the number of children struggling with mental health challenges from 17% to 10% by 2025 DISCLAIMER: The content in the podcast is not intended to constitute or be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
