Try These Rules for Developing Loving Discipline
Change misbehavior by setting positive goals
Say what you mean and mean what you say.
Involve your child in solving problems.
Talk less; do more.
Ask what happened to cause misbehavior. Don't say what you think
     happened. 
Make clear what you want. Praise kids when they do it.
Impose logical consequences for misbehavior.
Give choices--but be sure you can live with them.
Focus on what's good about your kids and expect their best.
Show your love. All children need to know they are loved.
