I hear parents talk about discipline all the time whether it’s the spanking debate or the time out debate. I am a big believer in time outs and I of course will tell you why!<\/p>\n
In my opinion time out is a way for a parent and a child to reset and start over. If you are like me, I put my child in time out only when she does something that bothers me. Hence when I am bothered by my child, I need a time out. As parents this great intervention was given to us to be able to take a break, take a deep breathe and be able to calmly parent again.<\/p>\n
Time outs need to be seen as an advantage to reset the behavior or mood and go along with your day. If you have a child who is not listening and it’s driving you crazy, then it’s time for you to reset and take a parent time out.<\/p>\n
As parents we all get frustrated even down right angry with our children which is normal and the right emotion to feel. How you handle that anger is what makes you a different parent than the next.<\/p>\n
Who agrees with me? Or better yet disagrees would love to hear how you deal with time outs<\/p>\n
