It's better to teach kids by enforcing good behavior with positive consequences whenever possible. Giving people things to strive for rather than things to avoid always yields better results. Just look at the failure of the prison system... 66% of inmates return to prison within three years because they're only trying to avoid punishment, and haven't learned how to yield positive consequences through proper behavior. No one is teaching them good things happen when you behave.
This is too simple a question to make a thread, and I don't want to PM you because you'll ignore me like Miriel ignored a job offer ($$$) from me Re: Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development. Some duncecap on the internet (the internet) said that because the first developmental stage - Obedience and punishment orientation (How can I avoid punishment?) ...causes children to only avoid punishment, it justifies hitting them. Which I find stupid. So question: does 'avoiding punishment' really just mean avoiding negative reinforcement? You have always said to just take the kid from the environment until they calm down but I'm not sure if the two are related (if I scream in public mommy will take me away from the toy store). n__n
Yay i'm a cripple!
It's too late, you've already revealed your weakness. Shortness is only a weakness to lame people; you can't fool me.
I don't think I'm sore about it. I just recognize it's something everybody is going to have something to say. You can also call me a shorty!
Most of my friends aren't married. Won't stop me from rubbing your one sore spot though. ^_^
