[quote=Anonymous]How does the advice to walk her back to the time out spot again and again work if she is kicking, scratching, biting, and running away? As a parent of that kid, I've been bitten, scratched, and bruised and a kid eventually too strong to be walked back and held. A lot of talking about calm down strategies, a return to watching Daniel Tiger, yoga breathing, talking about safe ways to express frustration and feeling mad like punching a pillow in her room or making a big scribble picture or loud music, can help head off the explosions. When it happens anyway? A bit of separation and time and then waiting a while to talk about what happened before calmly stating what the consequence will be (lost tv time or no dessert or taking away toy for a certain amount of time depending on what the issue was).[/quote]
