I'm a new father, and I'd like to know the best way to discipline my children.

The most important thing when disciplining your children is to be consistent. Make sure that you are firm but fair in all of your decisions. Explain why they did something wrong and explain what behavior is expected from them in the future. Show them empathy and understanding by listening to their side of the story. Lastly, make sure that you follow through with whatever punishment or consequence you decide on.
