Toddler Discipline Obtaining A Good Balance Of Actions

As a parent now for nearly sixteen years I can really understand the fine balance between toddler discipline, and squashing the spirit of a child.

When my first child Ellie was born I was totally new with this thing called parenting, and I found most of the parenting books to be contradictory at best and some just plain silly at worst. This may seem harsh to many new parents who are looking for a clear path as a parent.

I can understand being a parent is a tricky business particularly when it comes to discipline and particularly toddler discipline, if you opt for the free range approach and just let your children kind of develop in the vain hope all will be fine, then you'll probably be living some kind of living nightmare, with your kid completely dictating the agenda and totally running your life.

On the other hand if you go for total discipline as favored by many through the years, then you be in danger of completely losing the real essences of your kid's character.

I would like to say that their is a holy grail of toddler discipline, that you can follow and tick off the list as you go, and believe me many individuals would try to sell it off to you like this. The way I see it, it's about two core things boundaries and communication especially as your child begins to get to the toddler stage and further than.

I still find this to be with my 16 and 13 old children, I have what i refer to as my fall back position, that's as far as I will go on any given issue, that's my boundary that in most cases my children over a number of years have learnt to understand, however within those boundaries their is a lot of opportunities of freedom of expression and chances to grow as individuals that I personally feel is vital.

To do this though good communication is essential when implementing toddler discipline, to this end I have been highly privileged to have learnt things for example NLP that have assisted me shape my speaking skills and body language to get maximum engagement with my kids.
