How can I discipline my kids without spanking them?

And there are many ways to discipline a child without spanking. The important thing is to be consistent in setting boundaries when the child is young and continue this until they are grown up.

As children grow they gain privileges and taking away privileges is one of the best ways to discipline a child. For example as they grow up they may get a video game or another special toy. Just because they have earned that toy doesn’t mean you can’t take it away as a discipline.

Make sure it is something you can live with, usually no video games for a day is sufficient. If you take it away for a week it may cause a week of sulking and annoyance for you. Using the time out is another useful discipline.As the child becomes a teen this turns in to being grounded.

Make sure that both of these are really punishments. If the time out for an hour means that the child is in their room for an hour with all their toys, is that really a punishment. A twenty-minute time out sitting in a chair staring at a blank wall is more effective.

The same is true for “grounding� Which should include no cell phone or computer contact to be effective.
