[quote=Anonymous]There’s a difference between a consequence and punishment. Punishment is punitive, and the goal is to deprive of comfort. Consequences naturally happen as a result of every action, and they may be positive, negative or neutral. I would highly suggest research into discipline (that which helps teach self-discipline) rather than imposing coal as a punishment. It’s not age-appropriate, and it won’t have the desired effect. OTOH, I don’t buy into every child needing to be told about Santa. There are plenty of children around the world who celebrate other holidays or celebrate Christmas with Santa Claus. The spirit of giving is much more important than the act of receiving, and it’s meant to be year-long.[/quote]
