Your friend is struggling with disciplining her five-year-old son. She is frustrated because she consistently spanks him for his misbehavior, but is finding that spanking does not work. Based on your text, what might you tell her?
What will be an ideal response?
Students should first point out some of the negative outcomes associated with spanking. They should also note that
discipline (which refers to teaching) may be more effective than just punishing the unwanted behavior after the
fact. Students should then note some of the disciplinary strategies noted by the text, such as managing the situation,
setting clear rules and limits, praising good behavior, explaining and reasoning, removing privileges, and using
timeouts. Students should note that the focus should be on teaching good behavior, rather than on punishing bad
behavior.
