Episode 3054: Dr. Laura Markham argues that traditional discipline and punishment often backfire during the teen years because adolescents are developing their own identity and need to believe their choices are right for them. She explains how strong relationships, respectful communication, accountability through repair, and clear expectations help teens develop internal discipline, emotional regulation, and a genuine desire to make responsible decisions. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.ahaparenting.com/read/positive-discipline-teens Quotes to ponder: "If you have a strong-willed child, you've already learned from your child's rebelliousness that you can't control your child; you can only help him WANT to cooperate, and foster the emotional control that will help him do so." "One of the keys in getting teens to cooperate is respecting that in most areas of their life, they need to be in charge." "You can't hope to have any influence if your kid doesn't enjoy being with you." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
