| Clip of an interesting discipline technique |
So what do you think of this discipline technique?
Was it creative? Was it effective? Was it cruel? Would you use it?
I like the idea of disciplining based on the principal of empathy instead
of merely punishing an incident. These parents understand that their child needed to
learn empathy not just be punished for a bullying incident.
I like that the discipline was a teaching experience
instead of simply a punishment that has little connection to the behavior.
I like that the discipline was not done out of anger
or revenge, but for the purpose of teaching.
But I am not sure I would recommend this to other parents.
What do you think?
As a teacher of preteens/teens I think this is a great idea. It is not physically harming them to wear things that other people would be thankful to have. Like you say, empathy is important. In the other hand, I am a person who wears gregarious costumes to school for the Halloween party, so my threshold for clothing weirdness might influence my point of view. ;-)
