I like to be brief in what I write, so my opinions are best summed up with these paragraphs.


A serious parent in our culture today has a hard road to hoe in raising our children to be disciplined, loving, compassionate people. They have lost any semblance of submission to authority. You must be consistent and must train your child to obey through diligent and careful discipline and precise instruction. The rules cannot be changed from day to day. They have to be the same each and every day.


Children must obey their parents, and parents must challenge disobedience and persevere until the lessons are learned. You will infrequently witness resolute willpower such as that of a toddler who is determined to disobey. Victory is not something that is accomplished without hard work and perseverance.

Clearly reinforching and being direct are essential. Never allow your child to disobey without dealing with them. This means one day disciplining them for a wrongdoing then the next day because you are in the company of others deciding to let it be and forget about it. When they disobey they need to know that there are consequences to whatever their wrongdoing is. You cannot accept refusal to obey. You cannot accept obedience only when your child is convinced you are right or fair. The issues must be firmly in place and understand what the rules are and that they are non-negotiable.


You can of course teach them to appeal to authority. Children are not machines that take in only your input but they are individuals that have ideas and thoughts too. But they must appeal in a respectful manner. The appeal process being a safety valve for obedience. We as parents also have to realize that we sometimes make directives that are sometimes made in haste or may be inappropriate. When they know that they have permission to appeal a directiv
e they know that mom and dad will be honest and fair and reconsider and change the directives if it is good for the family or the individual. This allows kids to keep from feeling like they can't fight the city hall, or that their opinion will never amount to anything so why bother. The child also has to be willing to accept the denial of appeal in a gracious manner.


Child rearing is hard enough in todays society. Disciplining is probably the hardest of all the jobs we have in raising our children, no matter what your choice of dicipline. But if a child's life starts with clear, concise discipline and be consistent in that thing should run a lot smoother. Remember the saying little kids little problems, big kids big problems? If we dicipline with love and are consistent about it, those problems just may be just a bit smaller.
