  1. 1 year olds are usually too young to understand discipline. there are behaviors at this age that you need to curb, there are a few different things you can do.

    If hes hitting or biting a warning would be 'No, hitting/biting hurts! ow!'

    then stroke his arm and say 'we be gentle'

    if he continues, then remove him from the area for a short time. if hes hitting or biting you, put him down and ignore him for a minute.

    most behaviors can be ignored and then give him lots of attention when he is doing what you would like him to do.

    Another method is to just distract him and encourage him to do something else.

    there is no point in getting angry, spanking etc. He wont understand.


  2. One year old is too young to learn very much in the way of discipline.  More than anything, love your child, and protect him.  The rest will follow.

  3. That is WAY too young to start discipline.

    He/she will not understand what is going on.

    Wait until he/she is able to talk and communicate.

    The only thing you can do is stop them from doing what you don't want them to do by removing them from the situation, and I bet they will go back so you will have to do it over and over...

  4. Get his or her attention and give a firm "NO" when the child is displaying the undesireable behavior- but you have to do it right then.  Don't wait until the action is done because the child won't understand why you're telling them no.

    When the child is a bit older (around 18-24 months) then you can start using the time out chair/spot/stair.  Then explain why they are being put there.  My daughter (2years old) started understanding why she was being punished just a couple of months ago.  But you have to stay consistent and be patient.  

  5. with my first two kids I just said "no-no" in a firm voice and tried to redirect their behavior.  They would say no-no right back at me, giggle, and keep going back to the forbidden behavior again and again.  With my third, at 11 months I would say in a quiet rather than forceful voice "no-no".  If she continued, I'd give her a swat on the hand, if she continued again, either a swat on the hand or bum.  She learned in about 2 days that "no, no" was a boundary and would stop when I said no.  She even stops temper tantrums when I quietly and sweetly say no-no and she is 13 months.  My mom keeps saying I'm so lucky to have gotten such a pleasant baby for number three, because she sees my baby be so obedient and all I ever do is whisper "no-no".  The truth is that I trained her to know that the quiet, ultra calm "no, no" is the "I really mean it!!!" voice.  Since my baby is well disciplined, she gets lots more hugs and kisses and few looks of frustration, the few swats on the bum weren't child abuse.  Be firm and consistent and don't believe people who say your one year old doesn't understand enough to be disciplined.  One year olds understand your tone and facial expressions and that is the most important part of discipline anyway (remember the classic "I'm disappointed in you look" that has worked for so many children over the ages".


  6. Most parenting guides begin with the question "How can we get kids to do what they're told?" -- and then proceed to offer various techniques for controlling them. In this truly groundbreaking book, nationally respected educator Alfie Kohn begins instead by asking "What do kids need - and how can we meet those needs?" What follows from that question are ideas for working with children rather than doing things to them.

    One basic need all children have, Kohn argues, is to be loved unconditionally, to know that they will be accepted even if they s***w up or fall short. Yet conventional approaches to parenting such as punishments (including "time-outs"), rewards (including positive reinforcement), and other forms of control teach children that they are loved only when they please us or impress us. Kohn cites a body of powerful, and largely unknown, research detailing the damage caused by leading children to believe they must earn our approval. That's precisely the message children derive from common discipline techniques, even though it's not the message most parents intend to send.

    More than just another book about discipline, though, Unconditional Parenting addresses the ways parents think about, feel about, and act with their children. It invites them to question their most basic assumptions about raising kids while offering a wealth of practical strategies for shifting from "doing to" to "working with" parenting - including how to replace praise with the unconditional support that children need to grow into healthy, caring, responsible people. This is an eye-opening, paradigm-shattering book that will reconnect readers to their own best instincts and inspire them to become better parents.
