Nurturing without Punishment: Productive Approaches to Communicating with Children
Annotation
the subject of this article is the analysis of approaches to communication by parents with children in situations where there is a conflict of interests. The analysis examines in detail examples of undesirable behaviour by parents in order to exact obedience, the consequences of punishment and the reaction of children to the words and actions of parents. Concrete approaches for productive communication between parents and children to overcome problematic behaviour and facilitate adaptation to social norms and rules without using punishment are demonstrated in the article.
