Today’s episode is the second part of a three-part series inproviding more clarity around punishment, consequences and boundaries.

I find that these three things can be wildly misunderstood.

I am offering this series to provide some clarity around how each of these is different. Often, we use these words interchangeably however, each carry a different energy, purpose and impact.

On this episode, we dive into effective consequences.

Key takeaways:

· A true consequence is about how one FEELS aboutthe impact of their choices and actions

· Effective Consequences are about taking ownershipof one’s choices and actions

· Trust must be present to take ownership

· Effective Consequences focus on solutions ratherthan the problem

· Effective Consequences create problem solvers

· Effective Consequences keep self-worth in tact

· With Effective Consequences the child becomespart of the solution

· Effective Consequences is about solving aproblem without diminishing anyone in the process

· 3 elements of Effective Consequences are:Reflection, Make a plan, Follow-up

· 3 types of Effective Consequences are: Natural, Logicaland Problem Solving
