From Disciplining to Discipling | 6 Tips To Change The Way You Discipline

The topic of discipline is one parents are uneasy about. Just think about how many times you’ve seen a parent pull their kid close or off to the side and whisper in their ear and immediately the demeanor of the child changed. You know they whispered something along the lines of, “when we get home (fill in the blank).” And you know that because you have probably done something similar. Usually one of the reasons parents do this is to avoid criticism for how they choose to discipline.

Now the underlying reason for this is we do not hear a lot taught about discipline. Sadly, nearly every time the topic comes up among parents a debate about spanking breaks out. That is sad because that is not what discipline is about.

I am going to share six things that I have learned about discipline that will:

1. Help you think about it correctly
2. Change your approach
3. Think less about yourself and more about your kid
4. More effectively fulfill the mission of fatherhood

Discipline no longer needs to be a hush hush topic. Dads need to talk about it, share what they’ve learned, and join together to more faithfully father our future.
