Positive Behavior & Guidance
•Acceptable, healthy, and satisfying behavior for child and those around them.
•Directing, supervising, and influencing behavior
Guidance•Self-control- ability to govern own actions, impulses and desires
•Discipline- Process of intentionally teaching and training a child to behave in appropriate ways
•Punishment- Being subject to a penalty for something a person has done wrong
How to Learn•Direct Teaching- deliberately instructing
how to do something•Imitation- intentionally copying the
behavior of others•Identification- unconsciously adopting
behavior patterns of people they like or admire
•Trial & Error- choosing behavior through process of testing
Reinforcement•Response to a behavior that encourages or discourages a person to use the behavior again– Positive reinforcement- reward (more likely
to repeat behavior) i.e. praise, encouragement
– Negative reinforcement- punishment (Less likely to repeat behavior)i.e. negative consequences, disapproval
Parenting Styles•Authoritarian- value obedience,
use punishment to correct behavior, rule by authority– Parents have all the power– Offer little to no explanations– Don’t teach children to make their own
decisions– Children obey out of fear– Children more likely to misbehave when
parents away from them
Parenting Styles•Permissive- allows children almost
complete freedom in regulating their own behavior– Few rules established– Want children to be happy– Do not learn appropriate v.
inappropriate behavior– Children more likely to be self-centered
and uncooperative– Struggle with authority when older
Parenting Styles•Authoritative- Provides freedom
within limits– Parents establish rules, but explain meanings
and reasons for existence – Rules provide a sense of security, stability, and
consistency– Children encouraged to ask questions and
provide answers– Children held accountable for their choices– Use positive reinforcement– Preferred parenting style
Effective Discipline• Set Reasonable Limits

but separate the action from the child
• Reasons for misbehavior– To get attention– To be lovedConsequences– Natural – Logical

confident, grow up quicker, higher expectations from parents
