As parents, one of our roles is to teach our children the important skill of emotional regulation and self-control. We help them to train their forebrain as it continues to grow and mature over the years.
Parenting isn't easy, and finding the right balance between discipline and punishment can be tricky. In this episode of 'Today's African Mom Podcast', Mrs. D, a counseling psychologist, breaks down the crucial differences between the two. She explains how discipline aims to cultivate positive habits and behaviors, while punishment often focuses on inflicting pain or discomfort for an offense. Mrs.
D dives into the emotional impact these approaches can have on children and emphasizes the importance of emotional regulation and self-control in their development. You'll hear about practical, positive discipline tactics that go beyond the usual yelling or timeouts. For instance, setting aside quality time for each child, showering them with love and attention, and addressing the beliefs behind their behaviors rather than just the actions themselves.
If you're a parent striving to raise emotionally intelligent and well-adjusted kids, this episode is packed with valuable insights you won't want to miss.
