" Without recognizing the belief behind the behavior, some adults react to the behavior with some kind of punishment, such as blaming, shaming, or inflicting physical pain. This kind of response only confirms a student’s belief that he or she doesn’t belong, creating a vicious cycle that leads to more misbehavior. In this cycle the student’s deep need for belonging, contribution, and skills is not being addressed at all. "
