(Staff Photo I I n M r\ rv* /~\ r* i /~i r n Early Discipline Can Be Bad It is important for a child tu obe> his parents, t)ut forget about reprimanding an infant He doesn't understand. and even if he did, he couldn't control his action enough to do what you tell him. Discipline at too early an age will only hold back a child's development,'' says Dr. Frances Wanner, extension human development specialist, North Carolina State University Being kind and gentle with the baby works better than anything else You know that your own work isn't up to par when you are upset. It's tt'f same with babies," I)i' Warner sa\s In order for learning and dev eiopment to progress as it should, the baby's environment should be calm. Discipline should mean training which guides the child and strengthens good behavior. It should not mean punishment." the extension specialist says Punishment, such as slapping the child's hands when tie touches something he shouldn t, will eventually make him want to stop touching things at all. It would lx' better to sim ply move things that you don't want the baby to touch. When he is older, you can talk to him and he will understand whyhe shouldn't do certain things,'' l)r Wagner says. Try positive discipline Take the child's attention away from what he shouldn't be doing, and give him a better activity. Good discipline calls for advance planning. It is a lot harder to discipline than to punish, but the extra effort will pay off by helping the child to develop self-discipline, Dr. Wagner says.
