Consequences of not having a discipline with our children

There are many people who are not very clear about what it means to have discipline with their children , and they can confuse it with punishment or other similar things. For many fathers and mothers this word means authority, abuse, coercion …, however, discipline is truly about teaching and making them understand what the right behaviors are, as well as being able to make the right decisions in life.

If we treat our children with loving discipline , then they can be responsible children and show proper respect for others. It is evident, then, that teaching positive discipline is vital for the good development of the little ones , and not being clear about what it consists of can make this task very difficult and lead to errors that could be serious in the long run.

Below you can discover what are some of the most serious consequences of not having adequate discipline with the little ones:

  • A child who is undisciplined at home, will most likely also be undisciplined in other places such as school, friends or family homes … and, furthermore, it will be difficult for him to live with other people and children his age.
  • Undisciplined children can present problems when it comes to studying and undertaking any other activity in their life that requires concentration. The lack of well-understood and applied discipline means that this type of child does not have the habit of concentrating, which will generate many problems, especially at school.
  • If parents do not teach their children good discipline, they risk them finally making decisions in their day to day without knowing clearly what is good and bad in an unintentional and conscious way.
  • Lack of discipline can also generate other important deficiencies, such as a lack of principles and values , or a lack of respect, affection and / or communication.

Many parents believe that disciplining children is the responsibility of the teachers in their respective schools , which can lead us to see cases of children who change schools by decision of the parents, who consider that not everything necessary has been done for part of the school center. However, it is important to be clear, in order to avoid these situations, that the school is only in charge with respect to the children to provide education and that the values must be taught at home .

In the education of a person there are many pillars, and that is why adults must inform ourselves and be aware of what role each one of them should play.
