We live in a fast paced world where business and daily life are moving at the speed of thought. The emotional and mental toll this takes on young people, parents and families is tremendous. Parents need practical, real world solutions for the most challenging problems they face such as defiance, disrespect, lying and stealing, acting out in school, unmotivated behavior and more. Lets start by looking at discipline.  Raising and disciplining children is a challenge. No parenting subject is filled with more disagreement and inconsistency than the issue of discipline. Deciding on the best way to discipline children is confusing to many parents and even educators. For instance, many children who are strong willed, have leadership potential or are challenged academically don't respond well to many forms of discipline.

The discipline techniques that parents use today are often filled with myths, misunderstandings, and misinterpretations. In this short true/false quiz we intend to challenge you to examine your understanding of discipline and the beliefs upon which you base your discipline decisions. Hopefully, this activity will help you strengthen your own personal parenting style. Mark each of the statements below true or false. The answers will appear at the end of the quiz.
