[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He gets a time out every. single. time. he pushes, hits, or kicks, or continues playing with or touching someone when they "no" or "stop." Immediately. Less than 10 seconds.

[b]"We talk about it all the time..."[/b]

He's SIX not eighteen. Stop talking, have an immediate consequence that removes him from the fun, and his system will learn.

[b]Jesus, the Gentle Parents are ruining this generation. [/b][/quote]

This is OP. I just want to make clear that he does actually get a timeout anytime this happens under my or my husband's watch. He gets time out and we take away toys, cancel plans as a consequence, etc. I say "We talk about it all the time..." because, unfortunately, I am not at school and so there is an element of talking about what is appropriate at school and mapping out the day.

Anyway, I am not trying to be defensive because I clearly don't have it all figured out, but before everyone else piles on about gentle parenting, I wanted to add this. [/quote]
