Depends on what the crime is. Post what baby is doing and see if we can help in a more specific way.

If you're willing to read a relatively small book called "Discipline from birth to age 10" By Dr. Sears, then you'll experience a happier and emotionally healthier child.

Proper discipline starts with a strong bond between the parents and child and begins at birth. Understand that the classic form of discipline is not an option when the child is 10 months old. At this point your baby is simply learning about his/her environment. Appropriate reaction to your baby's learning is redirection at this age. A firm, but not loud, "no" and a redirection to appropriate toys/activities with praise for those activities will enforce future positive behavior.

You have one chance to raise your child right! The effects will be felt for generations, positive or negative. So, please do your future grandkids a favor and take the time to read more about raising the love of your life!

I actually don't know what you could be punishing a 10 month old infant for. However, the only thing you can do is say "No" and distract them with something until they stop the behaviour. By saying "No" you are conditioning the child to understand that the behaviour is not tolerated. A 10 month old infant wouldn't understand you anyways, but its good to start somewhere.
Just say "No" and distract them.

Hah, I am curious to know what your renegade infant is doing.

1 st of all you don't discipline a 10 month old, they can't do anything bad. if they cry they need something, food, drink, attention. a 10 month old is very young baby. if the baby touches things he/she shouldn't when crawling a firm "no" and actually picking them up should do or else baby proof the area. you are the parent you can't just leave them on their own and expect them to behave a certain way. you must interact with the baby positively.

Say "no" without yelling but be firm. Remove the child from the situation. A 10 month old needs a lot of supervision; more than discipline.

You start disciplining from birth. Distraction works only in situations that aren't life threatening. If he's pulling T. V. 's down on his self than you need to pop that hand and be sure that he understands that some thing bad just happened . he should not cry it's the shock value your after. and you shouldn't think that discipline is spanking it is teaching and if you do it right you DO start at the beginning of life so that when the child grows he will not think "No" is something to laugh at and will respect his parents.

I think at 10 months, they aren't old enough to understand the meaning of "discipline". I go with the people saying distracting is probably best.

It's a challenge, but repetition and consistency get the point across. I strong and sincere "NO" and pick him/her up and remove them from the temptation. They will walk right back and you repeat the process. The key is to never get angry and to wear them out. Eventually, they realize this is something that they are not going to be allowed to touch, and that other things, they are allowed to touch. Also, find alternatives that are acceptable near the temptation. Our daughter loved to eat the dogs food, and she probably ate one or two pieces during the process. Instead of removing the dog food, we tried this procedure and we allowed her to go into the pots cabinet and play with the pots. Now, when she's in the kitchen she goes for the pots and ignores the dog's food. We also feed her more! (just kidding!)

Patience and persistance. IT is hard and very time consuming, but it is very much worth it in the long run.Do not yell ,hit , or act out of control. Stay firm , sturdy and in control. If he/she is doing something that is not permitted .Stop what you are doing , Try to gain focus and attention and tell he/she not good ,do not ,you may not ,etc. take it away what ever it is or move him/her away from the source.You will have to repeat this several times ,sometimes for a long time, small time outs can be effective with stubborness, stay with your child during this so she/he gets the idea.there is only so much 10month old can comprihend.Keep it simple and direct,have patience and persistence, And most of all chose your battles wisely!!! best wishes

You dont discipline a 10 month baby, they dont have the proper mind age for that. What you can do is train them little by little, like for example, let the baby make sound when she wants a milk..

At ten months old you can tell him or her no and explain to them as simple as possible what it is they have done wrong they may not completly understand but they know you mean business. At about 1 year of age you can start time out 1 minute for every age of their life. Make them stay there for that specific set amount of time so they know they have to listen to you! Good Luck!
