The Consequences Of Incorrect Discipline :

There are several dangers connected to the incorrect discipline
methods a parent may decide to use and below are some of the
possible repercussions of such erroneous decisions:

Important Points

If the child is too young to understand to mode of discipline
being given out, the confusion will not allow the child to
actually focus on the negative act that caused the need for
discipline but will cause the child to focus on the fact that
maybe the parent does not really love or care for them after all.
This is very damaging for a young child and can be far reaching
effects that maybe so embedded in their subconscious that it
may be difficult to change.
Incorrect discipline may also cause the child to feel inferior and
therefore eventually become very withdrawn. This may also
erode their self- esteem.
A child with low self esteem issues will also end up having
problems in other parts of their life, thus creating even more
problems in the long run.
If the disciple usually takes on a physical mode, then the child
will eventually learn or perceive the only way to get what they
want is to be physical about it.
Therefore they will constantly resort to physical displays of
violence as they perceive this to be the accepted way to get

things done their way. All this is due to the example first set by
the parent in the style of discipline used.
Incorrect form of discipline can also make a child feel resentful
towards the parent thus causing friction within the family unit.
Sometimes this can result in relationships going bad.
