In a piece in The Conversation, Bernadette Saunders described positive discipline. Parents who practice positive discipline or gentle parenting use neither rewards nor punishments to encourage their children to behave.
By “no rewards” I mean they don’t use charts or “bribes” such as lollies or toys. Many don’t even say “good girl/boy” or “good job”.
And by “no punishments” I mean they don’t use time-outs, smacking, shaming, or yelling. Forget the naughty step, forget the sticker chart, let’s take a journey into the world of gentle or positive discipline, which aims to teach children empathy, self-control, and calmness.
