Phrase Comparison

Conscious Discipline asks us to change our intention in order to change our actions. This includes the language we use to guide children.

This Phrase Comparison exercise can be used to help adults experience how children “feel” the difference between traditional phrases and Conscious Discipline phrases.

If an adult can feel the difference between the intention implied, this indicates that the adult’s awareness of his or her intention is increasing.
