''To discipline'' thus means to instruct a person or animal to follow a particular code of conduct, or to adhere to a certain ". " Consequently, "in the field of child development, discipline refers to methods of modeling character and of teaching self-control and acceptable [[behavior]]." So for example, to discipline a child to wash her/his hands before meals. Here, 'washing hands before meals' is a particular pattern of behaviour, and the child is being discipline''d'' to adopt that [[pattern]]. 'To disciple' also gives rise to the word ''disciplinarian'', which denotes a person who enforces order. An [[ideal]] disciplinarian is one who can enforce order without [[coercion]] for "family specialists agree that using physical force, threats and put-downs can interfere with a child's healthy development." [http://extension.missouri.edu/xplor/hesguide/humanrel/gh6119.htm]  Usually however, the phrase 'to discipline' carries a negative connotation. This is because enforcement of order - that is, ensuring instructions are carried out - is often regulated through punishment.

''To be disciplined'' is then, subject to [[context]], either a [[virtue]] (the ability to follow instructions well) or a euphemism for punishment (which may also be referred to as ''disciplinary procedure''). As a concrete noun, the ''discipline'' refers to an instrument of punishment, for example in ''mortification of the flesh''. Such an instrument may also be applied to oneself, for example in penitence for not being sufficiently self-disciplined.
