Premanand Maharaj Ji
How strict or loving should I be with my children?
Balance discipline and love
Parents must be careful to keep a balance of discipline and love. Do not punish so much that the child stops obeying your discipline, and do not love so much that the child becomes undisciplined.
Parents must be very careful. Give not so much punishment that the child stops accepting your discipline, and not so much love that the child becomes undisciplined.
