How do we discipline kids without punishments (including time-out), rewards, bribes or threat?

There is so much more to be said to fully answer this question, but this is the core of it...

Peaceful Parenting means that we respect each other.
From respect comes trust.
From trust comes deep connection.

When our kids feel deeply connected with us, when they feel that we trust them, when we respect them on a daily basis, they're NATURALLY willing to follow our guidance, so we don't need any punishment, rewards, bribes, etc.

To that, I'll add that it's harder for our kids to follow our guidance when they're holding onto pent-up emotions and unresolved trauma. But that is the subject of another video ;-)

Remember, we don't need to be perfect parents: it's ok to make mistakes, so long as we own them and try to do it better next time <3
