For decades, parents and educators have been trying to raise children who are moral, but we seem to be losing ground. Bullying in school is said to be a growing problem, and kids are at least as rude and disobedient at home as ever. 

Why are we making so little progress? Ask yourself the following question: Can we expect to raise children who are moral if we discipline them immorally? Of course not!

Unfortunately, adults, both at home and in school, take it for granted that what they do in the name of discipline is good. But we shouldn’t take it for granted. Discipline is very serious business. They way we discipline children will influence how they understand what they did wrong, how they behave in the future, and how they discipline their children when they grow up. You will discover in this lecture that many of our common disciplinary policies are immoral and teach kids to be immoral in turn. And you will learn ten ancient principles of wisdom that will make discipline easier, more logical, and more moral. Follow these simple guidelines and you can’t go wrong
