A few weeks back I tested out a theory on different ways to discipline my son, in the theory I conducted are different ways to discipline my son. Before conducting my research, I seek advice from friends and family members on different strategies on disciplining a child. After listening to their advices I got so many different advices, I was skeptical on witch one to use so, I decided to conduct a research of my own. The type of informal research method I used was Google it gave me a list of websites on how to discipline my child. After conducting my research I found many similarities methods with the methods a psychologist would suggest. Some of the method I used from my research was “no sudden moves” and “put out the fire.” The no sudden moves it’s method is to not charge at your children in the room or where ever they are playing in, after telling them they have a certain amount of time to play or do any activity they are doing before they have to put up everything. The put out the fire method is to wait for your child until they have calm down before talking to them on why they got upset. Even though the methods were quite similar the methods from the psychologist where more detailed on why you should and should not do certain things when using certain methods. If I were given another opportunity on how to discipline my son, I would of change many things on the methods I used on him. What I would of done differently, I would use a formal research on what methods are best on discipline my child take the advice from a professional and apply to my soon to see what type of method works best for me in the aid to discipline my son.
