Being a c...This is an interesting article and post. Being a constructivist-I am not a big fan of the time-out, but I do think the way the article implements it, is more reasonable. I prefer the "Love and Logic" material to guide discipline, but nothing is perfect. It depends on the child, the parent and the situation. http://www.amazon.com/Parenting-Love-Logic-Updated-Expanded/dp/1576839540/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1214610045&sr=8-1<BR/><BR/>What I find really interesting is that our parents didn't subscribe to any "discipline" philosophy--I am not sure they really cared and children "appeared" to be more disciplined. Now we have a million "theories" to prescribe to and children seem more misbehaved than ever before. <BR/><BR/>All this thought-reminds me of the Dog Whisperer who rehabilitates dogs and trains owners. Perhaps we need a child whisperer who would rehabilitate children and train parents. Hmmm... I may be onto something here. <BR/><BR/>This gives me pause for thought--I will have to mull it over a bit more.<BR/>MMarshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05892880057977848604noreply@blogger.com
