[quote=Anonymous]This parenting article says that exercise as punishment isn't effective because a) it makes the kid associate exercise with punishment and b): "Using exercise as a response to child behavior problems is more of a punishment, as it generally pushes a child to the point of exhaustion or, at the very least, soreness, in the hopes that the child will remember that physical strain and not do things like lie or refuse to do chores next time. The trouble with this is that the child is not learning what is intended. Let's say your child curses at you and you decide to have him run laps. To paraphrase James, this is ultimately ineffective because your child is learning how to run miles rather than what he can do instead of cursing at you next time he feels frustrated." https://www.empoweringparents.com/article/giving-kids-consequences-exercise-as-punishment/[/quote]
