Document Summary
Discipline often a big question: children often remember the punishment but not why they were punished. Inductive parenting best: explaining to them what they did wrong, why its wrong and what to do in future, not physical punishment (not effective) If child is passed onto next grade w out learning the material, not helpful for their self-esteem either. More effective now: drinking and driving, hazards of smoking. Should children be allowed to testify: they are, but need to be careful, children faced w repeated questioning often change their responses or eventually corroborate w questioner"s incorrect beliefs.

Compliance issues and imagination: children are able to distinguish btwn imaginary and reality. Timing of experiences influences their effects (iq) How children overcome effects of early maltreatment is affected by its timing (age at which maltreatment occurs and ends)
