Query: Logical perspective to parenting

I was looking for a book that would give me ideas for how to make some changes in my parenting techniques. Some of the things I was doing were not working, and it seems like these day, people look at the word "punishment" as something awful we do to our kids. It seems that I am the only parent at our school that has "grounded" my daughter, and taken away some of her privileges. I was feeling like a "guilty" mom, but I want my daughter to grow up to be respectful, and to know the difference between what is a privilege and a what are her rights. This book gave me assurance that I wasn't crazy, and that some of the "old fashion" parenting styles are still the best. It's good common sense, but I think parents need to hear it more often. I have been using the punishment cards that were suggested in the book, and (although I've modified the idea), they do seem to be working for us. I passed the book on to another mom....
