Episode Synopsis

Send us a textPunishment might stop misbehavior in the moment, but it doesn’t help kids learn better choices—and it often chips away at connection. In this episode, we’ll look at a simple formula to help you find the right way of teaching and correcting that works for your family. You’ll also learn three research-backed strategies that offer a better path than punishment or permissiveness: encouraging positive behavior, setting kids up for success, and seeing behavior as communication. These tools make discipline less of a struggle and more of a guide, leading to cooperation, growth, and stronger relationships.If you'd like to get the show notes for this episode, head to: https://leighgermann.com
