question 132

Essay

As a 4-year-old, Jeff often misbehaved and exhibited aggressive behaviour (hitting his brother, interrupting his parents, leaving toys around the house).His parents were determined that he should learn to "do right." Any deviations from their perception of correct behaviour were dealt with quickly and efficiently through spankings, taking away privileges, and verbal scoldings.They were consistent in acting on their belief that Jeff needed to know that misbehaviour would always be punished.Jeff's parents did not believe it was necessary to offer Jeff any explanations for punishments because they believed that children did not need to understand the reasons for their behaviours.What explanation can you offer for Jeff's continued high level of aggressive and antisocial conduct?
