  1. BME and DISCIPLINE

  2. Objectives • To understand how and why some BME parents discipline their children. • What professionals can do to help safeguard these children

  3. WHY THE NEED FOR THIS WORKSHOP? • Issues arising from few BME parents disciplining their children on the basis of their cultural value which is tantamount to abuse • Two of the key safeguarding principles: • Race, language, culture and religious issues need to be taken into account but are not an excuse for abuse • To work with the child, parents and others in partnership

  4. CAUTION!!! • It is important to note that the fact that BME parents discipline their children differently does not mean that it’s a safeguarding issue. • Some aspects are positive while some are negative.

  5. TYPES OF DISCIPLINE

  6. WHY DO PARENTS DO THAT? Some BME parents discipline their children like that because they • are unaware that it is abuse • were raised like that • don’t want to lose control • are passionate about their children’s success especially their education

  7. WHY DO PARENTS DO THAT? (Continued) Some BME parents discipline their children like that because they • don’t want their children to drag the family name in the mud • don’t know any other way and are at a loss of what to do. • don’t believe in respecting children • see the child as their own ‘child’

  8. WHAT CAN WE DO? • Make parents aware of the law • Educate parents on other ways of disciplining their children • Emphasize the good point of the child when talking to them about their child • Let them know that we are there to support them and not just waiting for them to make a mistake.
