This supports children to become personally fulfilled individuals who can participate effectively in society. Parents can help children manage their emotions and behaviour through a variety of strategies including discipline, which might occasionally involve the use of negative consequences. However, physical punishment - causing a child pain or physical discomfort - is not only ineffective as a method of regulating children's behaviour, but can also be harmful. | Publication Type: | Report | Publisher: | Royal Children's Hospital, Centre for Community Child Health | Place of Publication: | Melbourne, Australia | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 170102 Developmental Psychology and Ageing | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 940112 Families and Family Services | HERDC Category Description: | R1 Report | Publisher/associated links: | http://www.rch.org.au/ccch/resources.cfm?doc_id=10886 http://www.rch.org.au/emplibrary/ccch/PB_20_Physical_Punishment.pdf |
