[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What discipline techniques would you like to use other than time outs? Considering the backlash against discipline all together, I think it's good that your current family is open to TOs. So use them and see what results you get. For us, the Magic 123 method works really well. [/quote] Love and Logic works longer than time outs or 1-2-3 Magic, and it's about children learning to control their own behavior and make appropriate choices for themselves. Removing toys and/or privileges can work for longer than time outs or 1-2-3 Magic as well, but it's dependent on the adult deciding what the punishment should be, knowing what a child's currency is, and it's not as effective once they are older.[/quote] Very young children cannot make appropriate choices. They are not miniature adults. They are driven by strong emotions that often have no reasoning with. This is why children understand and need simple cause and effect punishments, and also thrive on actual discipline. These emotion-aimed techniques that are so popular today are exactly the reason so many nannies are getting abused by their charges.[/quote]
