So many parents ask me about using time out as a sanction for negative behaviour.
There is a place for time out in your behaviour management technique repertoire, but it really should be used sparingly. Often it is over used, or not administered correctly. When this occurs, the timeout really is just pointless. The other common mistake parents make is a lack of consistency.
It takes a full commitment from you as a parent to follow through with the correct procedure of the time out, if you really want to see any positive outcomes in your child’s behaviour.
There are so many other things you can do to deal with negative behaviours before using a time out.
If you would like a copy of the correct procedure and steps to follow when administering a time out as a sanction for negative behaviour please email Chrissie at:
