Sustainability is a challenge.
For children's punishment, its continuous implementation is a great challenge. Skinner, an economist in behavioral psychology, pointed out that once the threat of punishment disappears, its inhibitory effect will also weaken. Parents who strictly enforce punishment for a long time are often at a loss.
Bad behavior may bring satisfaction.
The satisfaction that bad behavior may bring makes children feel that punishment is worth it. For example, children are too addicted to video games, and even if they are punished by their parents, they may still feel that their sense of accomplishment in the virtual world exceeds the actual punishment.
Cause an adverse chain reaction
Punishing children may trigger a bad chain reaction. Psychological experiments show that when punished, creatures may try to escape or fight back. Similarly, the punishment of children may also lead them to become more aggressive and affect their healthy growth.
Fairness and justice are the difficulties.
Fairness and justice are the difficulties in punishing children. It is difficult for parents to maintain a uniform punishment standard for different children or different behaviors of the same child. This may lead to children's distrust of punishment, and then affect the educational effect.
