Conversations with Parents about Discipline
February 9, 2018 - 9:00am to 5:00pm
In this mini-course we will examine the role of discipline and punishment in childrearing, address research on the effectiveness of wide range of parental disciplinary approaches, and examine evidence-based parenting interventions, and their recommendations and approaches to child discipline. The course content will be embedded within a child development framework that considers the child's age and development stage, in conjunction with family- and community-level factors. We will discuss how cultural norms and beliefs may influence parents' discipline choices and how social workers can best dialogue with parents help them achieve their parenting aims. This mini-course will address micro- and macro- social work issues.
Registration for this course is closed. Visit the CE Course Catalog for more offerings.
