Positive Guidance for Children: Controlling Emotions

By Anthony Kane, Md of Complete Connection Parenting

You're looking for a parent method that provides positive guidance for children. And you've heard about using consequences for controlling emotions and improving behavior. Well, I can help.

I've developed a short video that deals with consequences for children and it points out the number one reason that it fails. It's a free video and available online at http://ccparenting.com/discipline?10086. It won't take much of your time and you come away with the secret to effective parenting.

As part of my research, I've met with many parents who want a positive reinforcement system for their kids. That's what you'll learn in the video. Consequences aren't punishments. Using consequences gives structure to your child because he knows his boundaries and has a deterrent not to misbehave.

Let's look at one positive outcome of using consequences. It is excellent for helping children deal with their emotions. Feelings that may make them lash out at you when they are angry or curse at you when they are frustrated.

After all, the ability to control your emotion is not something you are born with. It is something we all needed to develop. As adults we know not to yell at a salesman or punch someone if they butt in ahead of you in line. We've learned how to control our emotions. Sure we might actually feel like doing each of those actions, but we can control ourselves and calm our emotions. We are in control.

But kids need that extra guidance. We need to teach them how to keep their emotions in check and do the right thing. You do that by setting consequences for your children.

When your child gets upset at his friend and punches him because his friend jumps ahead of him in line, he must know that he must stop playing as a consequence. Or if he screams at you to watch a TV show, he must know that he will get no TV at all as a consequence.

Watch my video and make the most out of using consequences. It will get you on the path to controlling emotions and improving emotions through positive guidance for children.

I watch children act up in stores and various other places. Many times the young mother has 2 or 3 children,5 to 12 years of age. I can't believe that these same children act out in school the same way. They must realize the differences in consequences from teacher to mom.
Nice intel.
