Child Development and Positive Discipline

 

     Childhood is all about learning. Positive discipline is all about teaching. The two seem to go hand in hand, don't they? There's a fine line between punishment and discipline, and most new parents aren't really sure where discipline leaves off and punishment takes over.
    

     You write a weekly newspaper column for parents on childhood discipline.  In your column, you answer parent’s letters about disciplining their children.  Pick one of the following letters from parents and draft a letter of response.  In your letter, give the parents some insights into early discipline.  Use the Background Information, Web sites and rubric below to help you.
