What do you think is the best way to discipline a child? There are many ways to discipline a child, how do you discipline your child? Many child are hard to handle as they grow old and mature. They tend to have their own group of friends. But sometimes, their friends are the one who teach your child bad habits. This is not good. And how about the child who is doing anything bad just for the parents to notice them? How would you discipline them? By talking to them? And what if they won't listen to anything that you will say? What action will you do?

Hello ronal14! Good day. It will be very hard to handle a child if you don't know how to discipline them. But when you discipline them be sure that there will no physical injuries that you will make with you child. I also have a son and he so naughty but what can I do they are just children so what we better to do is to guide them to good and educate them on how to become a good person and a good child to their parents.

Discipline in the life is more precious than life itself, for it is out of discipline than life deserves value. Parents should keep a healthy relationship with their children. They should get know who their friends are, what kind of character they are having. Once you understand your child's friends mislead him/her you should take immediate action to discontinue that friendship. Otherwise, it will harm your child. It is the duty of a parent to train their child discipline from childhood.

Disciplining a child is what most parents consult to. Parents have various kinds of ways in disciplining their child. Some child tend to follow their parents wishes and good habits, but some may follow their parents' bad habits. At very beginning, the parents must act as a role model to their child, because a child have that ability to follow the actions of what their idol do (parents)they see their parents as Moral and powerful. They believe in everything what their parents do and command, but in the long run of development, the child may meet new friends their peers, they influence one another. And the parents, must give limits to their child to discipline them. Like for example, the child says, "Mom, may I play with Eve on their playground?" and so the mother must properly respond to her child,"Yes, you can play with Eve darling, but you must be home at 3 o'clock in the afternoon,Okay? and wait until the child respond and deal with you, In that way you are setting limits to your child. If in any case, the child is a violator, we cannot blame the child because of what your child acts, there must be a reason why she or he acts worst. It depends on how you raise your child from the time he or she was formed inside your womb,we are talking about BioEthics. My advise for the Parents, Slapping,beating or physical harm is not an effective way of disciplining your child.If your child gets older and becomes worst, just continue guiding him or her and continue being with him or her all the time, because there will come a time , that your child will come to realize that "my parents don't hurt me, they are always here for me, why am I doing this bad things?," and so the child may take an action that would be beneficial to her or his parents already. For parents, Patience is a virtue, until your child gets old, please continue to be a role model for them.
