Discipline Styles for Child
All parents want the best for their children. They want to give them the best lifestyle
possible, the best schooling, the best atmosphere to grow in, and the best discipline to lead them
into the best possible future.
Spanking, positive discipline, gentle discipline are only a few styles of discipline for a
child. Every method of discipline will have an emotional, and psychological effect on the child.
This paper will do its best to share with the reader what Biblical Scripture teaches and what the
Secular World teaches as the best ways to discipline a child and provide him with the best
possible way to be spiritual, mentally, and corporal strong and clear-minded.
This paper will concentrate on the biblical and modern views on spanking, permissive,
authoritative, and neglectful parenting styles that every child is having to deal with today. Most
parents are torn between which style to use as every one of them has its implications. Every
action every parent takes toward a child will indeed impact their relationship for a long time.
Much care and love, wisdom, and compassion must be in place before taking any action to
discipline the child.
This writer believes, that there can be a combination of biblical and psychological
approaches in which the child may be disciplined in a manner that will protect the child and
allow him to clearly understand the reason for the parent's reaction in response to the child's
action.
