Discipline Is Not A Dirty Word

Cornell Cooperative Extension of Columbia County will present “Discipline is Not a Dirty Word” on Wednesday, April 14 and 28, from 6 to 7:30 pm at the New Lebanon Library. Bonnie-Jo Westendorf, CCE Parent Educator, will discuss the seven principles of discipline that parents, teachers and others can use with children. These include focusing on “do” instead of “don’t” statements, helping children to feel lovable and capable, offering children appropriate choices, changing the environment instead of the behavior, working with rather than against children, giving children safe limits they can understand and setting a good example.
Please call 518-828-3346 with name, address and daytime phone to register by April 9.
