Most of us grew up thinking that discipline means punishment. You do something wrong, you get punished—it’s just what parents do, right? But what if I told you that punishment doesn’t actually teach the lessons we want our kids to learn?
In today’s episode, I’m walking you through a real-life example from a mom who faced this exact dilemma. After getting a call from school about her son breaking something on the bus, her first instinct was to take away his iPad. But then she paused and asked herself… Does this even make sense?
We’re unpacking why punishment creates fear instead of learning, the real reason behind problem behaviors (hint: it’s all about emotional regulation skills), and what to do instead to actually help your child grow. If you’ve ever questioned whether time-outs, taking things away, or other punishments really work, this episode is for you.
