Not everyone likes the idea of time-out – but it’s actually been proven to work, when used correctly.
Time-out can be misunderstood, or seen as a form of punishment, but it’s really a strategy to help kids build self-control and keep their emotions in check.
Time-out

- Cuts down on the attention your child gets for acting up

Physical force, repeated instructions or threats don’t get the job done and can be problematic for your child in other ways.
