Discipline Versus Punishment By: Kim Olver Do you know the difference between discipline and punishment with their Latin roots? Punishment implies inflicting pain, while discipline means to teach. Parents who use punishment are missing important opportunities to teach their children better behaviors and help them self-discipline. Children can actually be taught responsible behaviors to help them get the things they want without breaking the rules.

Punished By Rewards By: Kim Olver I read Alphie Kohn's book, Punished by Rewards, and was surprised by how much research there is out there that supports the concepts of Choice Theory and Empowered Leadership. I wasn't surprised the research supported Choice Theory and Empowered Leadership, but I was surprised by how much research there actually is.
Kohn reviews the research and presents a very compelling case for why rewards really don't work. Any time we attempt to bribe someone to do something, we actua... Tags: reward, punishment, employee satisfaction, leadership, coaching
Corporal Punishment Around The World By: Kadence Buchanan I was listening to one of the Parent Teacher Association meetings we have regularly at my son’s school when our normal chit chat and conversations about the weather were ended abruptly by a question from Mrs. Stallworth.
“Is it right to discipline kids with spanking and other forms of corporal punishment?” asked the usually meek Mrs. Stallworth. The question caused immediate silence in the room as the normally loquacious parents and teachers seemed stunned by the frankness... Tags: Corporal Punishment, family, kids, child
Creating Happy, Healthy Teens By: Kim Olver There is research that shows that the best outcomes result when parents provide a good balance between guidelines and expectations for their children’s behavior and a positive, supportive relationship.
Parents are not meant to be their children’s best friends but in order to raise happy, healthy teens, it is imperative to have a reasonably close relationship, at least as close as your teen will allow.
Homework; The Power Of "Positive Consequences" By: Susan Kruger At a recent presentation for parents, I mentioned the importance of providing positive consequences to motivate students with homework. Afterwards, one mother approached and explained that her daughter has been having problems all school year. “Her teacher has been insisting that I provide a lot of punishment at home,” she explained. “I think that might be the problem…that my daughter is turned off by her negative attitude.” Wouldn’t we all?
For seventy-five years, American organizations have used a fairly standardized procedure to handle familiar personnel problems such as absenteeism, poor performance, and other misconduct. This approach, usually called “progressive discipline,” provides for an increasingly serious series of penalties — reprimands, warnings, suspensions without pay — when employees fall out of step with the organization’s expectat...

Crime and Punishment By: Wysong It is clear that our penal system neither effectively deters nor rehabilitates. It is, however, a tremendous drain on society.

Solving child behavior and child discipline problems By: Dr. Noel Swanson. The rule of the thumb is that rewards work better than punishments in establishing child discipline. Parents need to lay more stress on positive reinforcement rather than punishment for bad behavior. Many people view discipline as a punishment system but that is not necessarily so.

Punishment, on the other hand, makes them defiant, stubborn and obstinate. Tags: parenting, family, families, children, home, teenagers, stress, anxiety, television
Death penalty research paper Solutions By: Sharon White Capital punishment is indeed a very debatable topic that involves a lot of discussion and a death penalty research paper takes into account such controversies that are related to this contentious theme. Simultaneously a term paper should also provide brief information about death penalty and substantiate various arguments in favor as well as against the punishment. In fact, it should present the issue in a bright light discussing all its relevant aspects so that the readers can understand it. Tags: death penalty research paper
I Know Who Started The Fire By: Linda Dipman The flames from the forest fire twirled creating a funnel that took the form of a fiery tornado that lashed out furiously hurdling huge balls of fire that ignited grasses, trees and every house that was in the mist of the fire. The intensity of the heat boiled the water right out of the luxury pools of the rich and the tiny streams that ran along the path of the forest fire.
