Re: Parenting
"that if he is misbehaving ...he is out of fun ....he will have to sit alone n think about it!"
its a line from ur original message...n i think its almost self-explanatory....
when a child does something wrong....he should feel that he may have to lose something so that would be a deterrent...but THERE CANT BE A FIXED RULE...child's psychology is too complex to be tackled with a 'time-out' technique....one thing thats clear is that there mustnt be any physical punishment whatsoever..n s/he MUST NOT feel humiliated..it can have very damaging consequences in the long term for his personality....
so ill advise the parents to develop a communicating link with the kids through which they can understand each other better and may avoid resorting to punishment...but if the kid persists without any reason u may think about taking away his freedom for a while..but to me its something i would like to avoid..i would rather respect him or her n try to explain things lovingly (if i ever have a child:) )....sorry in a hurry so answer is disorganized..but i guess u get a gist of what i mean...
