[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 306560, member: 1722"] With all due respect, I'm concerned that the results of the study discussed in the article might further dis-empower parents from correcting their children and giving out punishments or natural consequences. I know despite groundings, time outs and loss of privileges, that Duckie is sure of my love and devotion to her. I'm certain about this because Duckie is told why she is being punished. She also knows why she gets so many positives in her life... she's earned them. I also talk to her about how her behavior makes me feel and how it impacts our family life. This isn't to induce guilt on her part but so that she understands that she is part of something bigger than herself. [/QUOTE]
