Just read an article that says a new research study showed
that if you use the consequence discipline thing (if you do that I’m going to…)
and use loss of a material object as the consequence (if you do that again I’m
going to take away your favorite stuffed animal), you are actually encouraging
your children to be more materialistic and value “things” too much. OK, wouldn’t want that would we. So, for repeatedly not listening to me, you
can keep your precious Lego star destroyer, I’m just going to start yelling again!
Seriously, a parent can’t win.
