FAQ

How can I tell if my child needs more or less discipline?

Different levels of development mean that children require different amounts and types of discipline.

If your child is under two years of age, spanking can be beneficial.

If your child is older, however, he/she might need more structure or guidance.

Before making any major changes in parenting style, it's important to talk with your doctor about the behavior of your child.

Is it the most difficult time for parents to raise a teenager?

Teenagers are difficult to manage, as they often don't want what you think is best for them. They might rebel against the authority of their parents.

Teenagers, however, need support and guidance as much as any age. Teenagers need to be taught how to make decisions and to take responsibility.

They need time alone without supervision but not too much freedom. And they need to know when to ask for help.

Teenagers tend to be independent and self-sufficient. However, this does not mean that they do not need your support.

Teens need to feel loved, supported and looked after. They need to look up to their parents and see them as role models.

Teens must also understand the reasons for certain rules. For example, teens shouldn't smoke and shouldn't drink alcohol.

Parents should teach their children right from wrong. They should also tell their children the consequences of breaking these rules.

Parents should also show their kids that they respect their opinions. This includes listening to what they have to say.

This also means being open-minded to compromise.

Sometimes teens get angry and rebellious. But this isn't always bad. They're actually growing up.

Teens who act out are usually trying to express something deep in their hearts.

They might feel confused or frustrated. You might also feel confused or frustrated by life's changes.

Listening to your teenager is important. Next, try to determine what is causing the behavior.

How do you address sibling rivalry the best?

You shouldn't try to avoid sibling rivalry through ignoring them. Instead, you should find ways to make them feel valued and loved. So they don't feel jealous and can have fun having fun together.

Here are some tips:

Play games together. You could play tag, hide-and-seek, tag or any other game in which they need to cooperate.
Consider giving them special treats. Consider giving them an extra piece or cone of icecream.
Make them laugh. Tell jokes, sing songs, or dance.
Spend quality time with your children. Take walks with them, read books, and play board games.
Talk to them about the things that are most important to them. Ask questions about their favorite hobbies or activities.
Be patient. If they are fighting with one another, don't be discouraged. Be calm and cool.
Encourage them to do nice things for each other. Tell them how much you value them being friends.

What is a healthy life style for parents?

Healthy lifestyles for parents include eating well-balanced foods, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and spending quality time with loved ones. This includes avoiding alcohol and drugs.

Is gentle parenting good?

It depends on what you mean by "good." If you're referring to the treatment of children, then I would answer yes. However, if asked whether they are happy with the treatment, I would have to say no. They need to be disciplined and firm at times. They won't learn how to behave well if they don't.

Children need rules and limits. Without them, children will never know what is acceptable behavior. They won't know how to respect others and follow directions.

If you were to ask me which parenting style would I choose, I'd answer none. Each style is equally effective. The key is to find the one that is most effective for you and/or your family.
