Description – As gentle discipliners it can be confusing to figure out how to teach our young children right from wrong when the old models of spanking and yelling still haunt us from our own pasts and the new models of time-out and punitive consequences are what so many parenting gurus advocate.
In my work with intentional mamas, we explore the idea that spiritual qualities – virtues – like gentleness, kindness, love, assertiveness, courtesy, justice, honesty etc. – are within each us in potential, needing to be nurtured. It can be very comforting to acknowledge that your young child already possesses these beautiful character traits. With your guidance and teaching, these qualities can be strengthened and come into balance. In my practice, we talk about these qualities as boundaries. For example, in our home we honor courtesy and kindness. It is my sacred duty as a parent to notice when my children practice courtesy and kindness. When my children make a poor choice, like hurting a playmate, there is a natural negative consequence that occurs – they feel remorse and/or their playmate cries and may not want to play. Temperament and your child’s accumulative stress may be affecting their behavior at the same time restitution is important for both children to heal and move on with play.
