''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.
