Discipline for Children and Youth

As a caregiver, you are helping your child understand and navigate the world around them. They are testing limits and learning the rules. It is your role to help your child learn right from wrong and become successful in life.

Your child learns this through discipline. Discipline teaches your child how to manage their behaviour through clear rules and consequences.

Children who have been taught through positive discipline are more likely to be responsible, self-confident, and make good choices independently. Without discipline, children are more likely to lack self-control and social skills, and engage in harmful behaviours.

Who can attend?

Caregivers aged 18 or over, who are parenting a child or youth of any age
