When it comes to bringing up children to become responsible adults, discipline is paramount. However, the way you handle your kids when they exhibit a bad behaviour is different from how another parent will tackle such situations with their kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What you see as an acceptable medium of punishment may come off as cruel punishment to another parent. That leaves us with the question of how to discipline other people’s kids when they are in your custody or when they misbehave around you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is an African saying that “when a child is in the mother’s womb, the child is hers. But when the child is born, it takes the community to bring him up”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
