Description of discipline technique:
Uses logical consequences and empathy. Child forgot his lunch? Bummer, I bet you were hungry today. What are you going to do about it? Child says, "I hate you." My reply, "Probably so, yeah, I bet you do, maybe so." Then I talk to him/her about it later and how I felt and what I wish they would say or do instead. Love and Logic teaches responsiblity, keeps the dignity of all, provides choices, Empowers children.

Appropriate age group(s):
