methods of punishment

The passage and the professor both express ideas about different ways of disciplining children and their consequences. The professor states that the best method of discipline is management technique, which differs from the other two methods, as following.

According to the passage, management technique includes a set of musts and must nots that are enforced via encouragement, explaining, and reasoning. The professor indicates that this helps the children to have highest possible self-steam, as it does not withdraw the parents’ affection toward children and does not frighten them as well.

The power method can include physical punishments or other demonstrations of power, such as taking away a specific privilege from the children. This is the most popular method among the parents; however, destroys the self-steam of the kids disciplined this way. The professor highlights that some researchers believe that physical punishment should not be exercised in any age group of children. The power method causes harm and control the children's behaviors by fear rather than clearly logical reasons.

Finally, the withdrawal technique leads to experiencing some periods of lack of love and approval as punishment. Referring to the professor, this also affects the kids' self-steam negatively. Its long-term result is children who have a very disciplined outside and a very insecure inside, that seek desperately for approval of the others.
