5. To train someone physically, intellectually, emotionally and socially
When combined with love and respect, it helps children to develop self-esteem and responsibility
Parents, teachers, caregivers and others train children when they talk, teach, hold and spend time with them

6. Positive Tools Help Develop Self-Control
When children have self-control they know

When to do it

when caregiver is not around
Self-control helps children
feel safe
feel confident
be able to think for themselves

7. Effects of Negative Tools
Negative tools like spanking, hitting, yelling or making fun of children tend to
make them timid and withdrawn or rebellious and mean
lead children to feel bad about themselves and to develop fewer feelings of self-control
lead children to question parents’ love and discount the times they really do want to talk, hold, or spend time with them
Constant questioning and discounting of children leads to discouragement, and a discouraged child is more likely to misbehave

8. Reasons Children Misbehave
