chosen: How should I punish my child for having bad grades?
  
  It is important to remember that punishing a child for having bad grades can be counterproductive. The emphasis should be on encouraging better performance and instilling a work ethic and an understanding of the consequences of not putting in the effort. Positive reinforcement, talking to them about the mistakes they made and how to rectify them, offering additional support and assistance and creating a consistent and loving environment where learning and school is seen as important are all strategies to consider. Punishing a child for the consequences of their actions is likely to lead to resentment, low self-esteem and ultimately poorer performance.
