A lot of people are who they are today because of the discipline from their parents or guardian and some do not really go through that discipline, but we come later at the end to appreciate that discipline because it change us and shaped us to be the kind of person that we are today, I'll share a short story with you guys.

When I was still a child something happened that I can never forget, I had a senior brother, we were both growing up together, so he started taking things secretly, he started stealing from my parents it started very small, but my parents saw the damage it would cause tomorrow, so one day he was caught in the act and was seriously disciplined, disciplined to the point that I was so scared, I felt so bad for him cause I pitied how he was dealt with, and after that day he became a changed boy, and even me that don't steal after I saw that discipline I never thought about doing what he did, ( I never thought about stealing), I told myself that I won't let myself be punished severely like that, so in essence that discipline changed me that was innocent and my brother at once.

so I'll say discipline is very good tho it should be done with love, discipline has a unique way of making children change, be upright morally and be respectful, because they are lots of spoilt children out there, they are spoilt not because the parents are bad people or that the choose to be spoilt, buh because the were not given the right discipline, some parents feel like disciplining their kids is harming them so the shower them with love in the wrong way…..
every child needs to be corrected, and some corrections are hurtful, they have to feel it so that the change will be permanent, if my parents did not discipline my brother the way they did it could not have changed him and even change me or make me never to think about stealing, imagine the used words like “ victor honey don't steal okay, stealing is not good okay, pls don't do again, if not mummy will not be happy with you.“ it is very good to do this especially if the child just starts misbehaving, this method of warning is adviceed, 1st, 2nd and maybe 3rd time , before the serious discipline, but some children still don't take the warning serious, some kids don't hear until they are punished, I've seen a lot of parents who tried talking to there children and it changed nothing, tho sometimes talking works buh sometimes discipline handles some matters better
