'indiscipline' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'indisciplina,' where 'in-' meant 'not' and 'disciplina' meant 'instruction or training.'

'indisciplina' transformed into the French word 'indiscipline,' and eventually became the modern English word 'indiscipline' through Middle English.

Initially, it meant 'lack of instruction or training,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'lack of control or restraint.'
