Outdoor education will be a wonderful experience for the students. The students get experience in nature and group activities. Spending time in nature through outdoor education improves standardized test scores, grade-point averages and develops skills in problem solving, critical thinking, and decision making.

Can anyone help me find alternate disciplinary actions I can take w/ my 9yr old son?

Ok lets see, my son is 9 going on 30. He likes to lie about others lying about him. For example; yesterday he got in a fight on the bus to the sitters house. The sitter, her neighbor and the bus driver all told me what had happened, and for the life of him they are lying. Today he missed the bus home and said it was because he left class late, but when I spoke to his teacher, he didn’t leave late. He’s gotten very defensive lately, and talks back w/ attitude for EVERYTHING. I do not spank him, we talk a lot about everything, and when he behaves bad I take away TV, WII, PS2, Toy Chest, and outdoor privelages. Any other suggestions?

I’ve heard this story a million times and I know that the last thing you want to do is to spank your son. Here are a few optional methods you could use:

-Treat every action he performs with an appropriate reaction. You know when the dog pees on the carpet, you rub his nose in it. Well do the same thing with your son. When he lies to you about something, lie to him about something. That will hopefully teach him that lying is wrong, especially when he is the one that is being lied to.

-Ground him to his room but take away everything. When he misbehaves, or lies, take out everything but his bed and dresser. As he begins to behave and not lie, then slowly give him an item back. Save the better and more expensive items for last. The point is to make his grounding a punishment and by taking everything out of his room, he can’t go there and secretly play with his toys and stuff.

-I know you don’t want to but give him a good old fashioned whooping. After that he’ll think twice about mis-behaving and lying. Let him know that if he lies again that he will get it worse than he did the first time. To be honest, this method is really just a scare tactic, although the first time you use it, you actually have to give him a spanking. I know that you might not want to hit him but sometimes kids do need to be spanked.

I don’t want to take up too much space on here so if you would like to, email me and I can help you out.

I hope I could be of some help to you.
