The use of discipline as a positive learning experience that sets limits for behavior of children by guiding them to and through adulthood is presented in the fourth booklet of a series on parenting education for American Indians. Five major areas parents can teach children by their own behavior are tasks, curiosity and interest in learning, respect for others, emotional control, and problem solving. Chapters on infants, early childhood, and adolescence offer suggestions in dealing with discipline at these age groups. Another chapter looks at alternative kinds of punishment besides physical punishment. The concluding chapter suggests both parents share the responsibility of discipline. (ERB)
