Re: When should disciplining start?
"What is Disicpline to pakistani people, coz im a bit confused on why u would only teach children dicipline at the age of 7?"
I think there can be confusion over this....
the parents that I spoke of from my son's class, they (appeared to) take it literally that there should be no discipline till age 7....
Hareem, I think, disciplines her children since it sounds like they are well-behaved and well adjusted (sorry to make even more assumptions lol!) But any time a parent teaches a child not to do a certain thing or to do a certain thing at a certain time...thats discipline (IMHO).
There are different ways to discipline - structuring their lives. Using time-outs. Spanking. And each parent disciplines in their own way.
I have a feeling that some desis take the word discipline to mean beating.
Ok, now I;m making lots of assumptions lol! :)
