For eons, children have been “taught” to do what the parent wants using punishment as a tool. But punishment actually teaches the opposite of what you want your children to learn—because it teaches out of fear. It’s also hard to get out of the head that you as the parent should not be the “boss” of your child. In fact, you want your child to be the boss of herself. Just not of you. Enter problem solving—the tool of partnership, engagement, and balance.
