Agree
To get behaviors we desire, we do not have to make a child feel worse (punish) in order to behave.

We need to keep in mind that the goal revolves around helping kids grow into responsible caring people rather than merely obedient.

Adler & Dreikur believed that children want to feel significant and a sense of belonging

This is what drives their behavior, often subconsciously.

In order to feel connected and significant, they misbehave.

Children have mistaken ideas about how they can be a part of something and how to be important.

This leaves adults perplexed, frustrated, angry, irritated, feeling guilty. . . to name a few.

With the right tools

Here's an incredible tool, we have found through Positive Discipline to identify and equip.

Undue Attention
I am significant and belong if I am getting special services or attention from others.

Revenge
"I don't belong. I am not significant. Therefore, I am angry and hurt and think others should feel poorly too."

Assumed Inadequacy
"I don't belong. I am not significant. I don't think I can be either. I give up.

The great thing about the chart is that we start with us--how do we feel?

Decoding our feelings (column 2) helps us.

Looking at our own reactions to the misbehavior and the child's reactions helps us break the code.

It can then equip us to change behavior.
