And, I really appreciate how you mention guiding her spirit since it's so important to let them have that part of their personality.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05510971989522522535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5613179780353478589.post-25529320558553800482011-12-30T08:31:55.278-05:002011-12-30T08:31:55.278-05:00Cooper MELTS DOWN when he has to go in time out. ...Cooper MELTS DOWN when he has to go in time out. I mean, screaming, huge tears, lots of obvious anger. And even with all that? I laugh. I can't help it! I guess if I didn't laugh, I'd cry. I think, at their age, it's just about consistency. And maybe you and Mr. P can trade off when one of you starts laughing. I make Lee stand by C during time outs because he doesn't laugh. But, E obviously gets why she is in time out if she is apologizing after, so I think y'all are on the right track! I'm not above spanking either, but I fear that it will teach him to hit, so we haven't gone that route yet. Although it HAS been warranted.

We have moved on to bedroom time outs if a regular corner timeout doesn't work and that seems to be working...but E is still a little young for that. No doubt this parenting stuffnis hard!Amy @ Forever 29https://www.blogger.com/profile/08186922608721674757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5613179780353478589.post-73064291303742077972011-12-30T06:34:32.513-05:002011-12-30T06:34:32.513-05:00I wish that time out worked for KP but she doesn&#...I wish that time out worked for KP but she doesn't get it. I tried setting up her pack n play for time outs and she's just like ??? so I have no advice, LOL. I know we aren't above spanking but I think right now they are too little, you know?

It is SO hard for me to not laugh. I mean I just can't help it! I know I'm not supposed to and I'm not doing anyone any favors but gosh. It's just so freaking funny. Discipline is and will continue to be one of my biggest parenting challenges! The strong-willed babies we have...
