Course overview
Lesson Overview

3.43 – Keeping Discipline Age-Appropriate: Discipline must evolve with a child’s maturity. Strategies that work for toddlers fail with teens. Age-appropriate methods respect cognitive and emotional stages. Young children need simple rules and quick feedback, while older ones require reasoning and negotiation. Adjusting expectations prevents frustration on both sides. When parents match boundaries to development, discipline feels fair. It teaches responsibility suited to ability. Ignoring developmental needs leads to rebellion or confusion. Balanced expectations nurture cooperation and growth. Age-appropriate discipline shows respect for individuality, proving that fairness means meeting children where they are.
