[quote=Anonymous]If my 12-year old is fresh or mouthing off, I give her a "cool down" time of about 10-15 minutes. (Similar to time-out when they were younger of 1 minute for each year of their age). I tell her to go to her room for 10-15 minutes, and when she's ready to behave, she can rejoin the family. that usually works. Sometimes she stays in there longer. It works for my 9-year old, too.
