Our world is increasingly more violent and we are trying desperately to find solutions which will produce a peaceful society. This is a challenging task because violence seems to have many root causes. Yet every parent can find ways to nurture more peaceable children.
- Children will model violent behavior they see at home. Find non-physical ways to resolve conflict.
- Spanking may stop undesirable behavior but what it teaches is a bigger, stronger person can force you to do things their way.
- Allow children to express anger in appropriate ways.
- Make time for your children. Nothing can replace lots of time with caring, calm adults.
