Connective Discipline- A New Lens to View Discipline Through. Presented by Helena Walsh.
“If you want to discipline your kids, make them your disciples. A disciple is someone who in not afraid of you. A disciple is someone who loves you and wants to belong to you and follow you. Discipline is the very opposite of punishment.”
Dr. Gabor Maté
Connective Discipline challenges many of the traditional views on discipline and fear-based compliance. It looks at behaviour through the lens of recent neuroscience which lends to understanding behaviour as communication of a need and highlights the value of our own intuition as parents.
Key Aspects:
- Consider how we were Disciplined: Challenging the traditional view of ‘Discipline’
- Behaviour: We explore the role of development and how this, together with emotional intelligence, influence behaviour. Our own intuition gives much insight into our child’s behaviour also.
- Setting Boundaries: Connective Discipline emphasises the importance of setting firm but kind boundaries and understanding when and how to do so.
- Nurturing Secure Attachment: It offers practical, simple ways that we can connect with our children to nurture a secure attachment through the cycle of rupture & repair, as well as the role of ‘play’ in nurturing the secure attachment.
