Description of discipline technique:
As we all know, family-life baggage can travel with you everywhere. Help yourself and your kids by unloading some of it now. Be the best example of a mature, responsible, loving and giving adult that you can be. If you don't want your kids to lie, don't let them hear you lie to someone on the phone. If you want them to come home on time, make sure that you are home when you say you will be. If you don't want them yelling and hitting their siblings, make sure that you're not always yelling or hitting. If you don't want them to smoke cigarettes and do drugs, quit smoking and talk to them about the dangers of drugs. If you want them to be loving and giving, show them and tell them how much you love them as often as you can and teach them how important it is to give back to your community and to help others, especially those less fortunate than yourself.

Appropriate age group(s):
For all ages.
