Parenting with your partner when you don't see eye-to-eye on discipline meth- ods, however, adds another challenging element to the mix. In cases like this, both parties need to sit down and discuss discipline phi- losophy. Discipline means "to teach" and should not be looked upon as being puni- tive. Children are smart, and if they see that one partner does not discipline the same way the other does they may try to manipulate the situation, leading to con- flicts between partners. It is important that children under- stand they cannot get their way by win- ning one parent over. Children should see their parents as a unified team. Working together as a team and communicating daily will help guard against confusion and head off potential family arguments and conflicts. Here are a few suggestions to help cou- ples work together in parenting. These strategies can help cultivate healthier re- lationships between all parties within a household. 1) Consistency is key. Both partners should agree on which behaviors are de- sirable and which are unacceptable. Both partners also need to agree on the pa- rental response to their child's behav- iors. What will the logical consequences be? If possible, include children in creat- ing a behavior plan or family plan to fol- low. Make sure that your behavior plan is age appropriate and has realistic expecta- tions. We want both the children and the plan to succeed! 2) Demonstrate and practice with chil- dren what exactly is expected. For exam- ple, if you ask them to pick up their toys, show them how to do that. (i.e.–It does not mean they hide them under the bed, but instead should put them in their toy box or in their closet). If they do not pick up, they might lose their favorite toy for a day (or more) depending on their age. This is an example of a logical conse- quence. 3) Use logical consequences whenev- er possible. For example, on Wednesday, they are asked to have their room clean by Friday night in order to spend time with a friend. If they choose not to do that, then they will not be able to get to- gether with their friend. Be sure to offer positive reinforcement with your children at every opportunity for making good choices. When they make mistakes, en- sure that the consequences are logical and age appropriate. 4) Make your expectations clear. An- other strategy is to have children repeat back the request/command you have made. To ensure better understanding of the directions say something like, "What is it that I just asked you to do? " Using a chore chart or calendar assists with put- ting chores in better order and creates better rhythm and routine in the home. 5) Engage in learning opportunities as a family. Reading a story to a preschool- er or nursery rhymes with repetition all create the moments of simple directions and serve and volley interactions that im- prove brain development and learning as they grow. Encourage better focus by playing games like "I Spy" or "Red Light Green Light." Helping children become responsible adults is our goal. Kids build self-worth by doing and learning that they are capa- ble of accomplishing things on their own. Behavior plans will also teach them to pay attention, focus on the task at hand, remember the rules and consequences, communicate and learn self-control. Creating these positive interactions will help children grow into confident people poised for success.
