children treat others how they feel. They don’t have the words to say it and they don’t have the impulse control to stop, so sometimes they hurt others.

Try to respond to how they are feeling and not just react to the behaviour. You need to keep everyone safe, but make sure you connect before you work through the behaviour later.

The only person we can really control is ourselves. We can influence the situation, we can hold boundaries but we can't really control our children's behaviour.

Ultimately parents are trying to do their best to help their children grow and develop into "good" people. Unfortunately we have been brought up in a world where punishment has always been the main way to control behaviour. The problem is that if we really want our kids to develop a moral conscience and take responsibility for their actions, punishment simply doesn't work. We need to discipline our kids in the true sense of the word; teach direct and guide them. We need to work with them and not be an authority to cause fear, but someone that will help them develop to the same moral standard we have.
