'Actions speak louder than words' is the best way to discipline a child. Most times when children get into tantrums, a parent shouts in an equal volume or spanks the child. This can be alternated with a stern look or simply not speaking to the child. Finally repeating the proverb will make the child understand the meaning and most often kids do not repeat such aggressive behaviour. 'Beauty is skin deep' is another proverb which is beneficial. Older kids are very passionate about fashion trends. In the joy to explore, they disregard the value of money and natural living. This proverb can be mentioned to explain that there are many qualities that make a person beautiful and that seem higher than the physical attributes.

One could fabricate more story in the proverb 'Grapes are sour' and explain how it is important to be independent and striving is essential to attain a goal. Additionally, 'no gains without pains' is the best way to teach the child to be self-regulating.

Biblical proverbs are excellent. 'It is better to give, than receive.' The words of Jesus Christ are the best way to teach the child to share at the dinner table or when friends come over to play. A child loves to receive and we too, try hard to give the best to our children. The next time, the child has a chocolate bar, make it a point to teach the child to share a piece with its older sibling or a friend. Little thoughts have deep values. 'The early bird catches the worm', this proverb has much meaning in the later phases of life. Habits of getting up early in morning, timeliness in watching cartoon or doing the homework is about discipline. A child who has value for time is stress free, as being organized becomes his second nature.
