Punished By Rewards | Quote 01457

Quote

Younger children cannot always identify and verbalize their motives. Five-year-olds do not pause reflectively and say, ” Well, Daddy, I guess I slugged Zachary because I’m displacing my emotional turmoil caused by hearing you and Mommy yell at each other so much.” They are more likely to shrug and mutter, “I dunno.”
