Easy Discipline?

Yep, discipline can go smoother and easier when you remember to:

* respect your child as a person
- with her own likes/dislikes/strengths/weaknesses

* accept and love her as she is
- not a small version of you, but a separate person

* take note of her capabilities
- what she can & can't do for her age

* listen and respond when she speaks
- give eye contact to communicate interest

Why does this make discipline easier? Because your child will feel loved and respected. Then she'll respond to you out of mutual respect.
