Use The Latest Neurological And Psychological Research

Parenting is one of the most researched fields in psychology. Many parenting techniques, practices, or traditions have been scientifically researched, verified, refined, or refuted. Using scientific knowledge is of course not a one-size-fits-all strategy. Every child is different. Even within the best parenting style, you can choose many different effective parenting practices according to your child’s temperament. For example, besides spanking, there are many better alternatives, e.g. redirection, reasoning, removing privileges, time-in, etc. You can choose the non-punitive discipline method that works best for your child.
