August 31, 2007, Newsletter Issue #166: Misbehavior

Tip of the Week

Use natural consequences for misbehavior. For example, remove the object two children are fighting over. Separate fighting children. Let them spend time apart. Note that this is not the same as giving a time out. There is no punishment involved, it is merely keeping them separate. It is also helpful to give each child a physical chore or task to do after you have separated them. This will channel their energies positively and drain off some of the emotions.
