During middle childhood, what works best for disciplining children?

Reasoning and logical consequences
Bribery and rewards
Spanking and physical punishment
Ignoring inappropriate behavior

The correct answer is: Reasoning and logical consequences

Reasoning and logical consequences are the most effective discipline methods because they teach children the reasoning behind their actions and the potential consequences of their behavior. Bribery and rewards may provide temporary results but do not address the root causes of misbehavior. Spanking and physical punishment can be harmful to a child's physical and emotional well-being and may lead to increased aggression. Ignoring inappropriate behavior does not provide opportunities for children to learn and improve their behavior.
