Disciplining children can be hard because you want your kids to be brought up thr right way but maybe we don't always know how to go about doing that, or every child is different, or we might be wrong.  I think discipline is important but more importantly how it's done.  I don't know the right way to do it and I wish too that there was a mannual that came with each kid so that we would know.  There are things however that I think are important to teach kids and those I learned from my parents.  I think it's important to teach your children how to work and teach them the worth of a dollar.  Give them opportunities to learn and grow by making these type of decisions on their own so that they can learn from the concequences of their actions.  I really liked talking today about natural concequences and not to focus on bad behavior because it reinforces it.  I am nervous about doing everything perfectly but I'll just do my best cuz no one is perfect. :)
