[quote=Anonymous]5 is not too young to understand the concept of a time out. -Talking back, let her know she may not speak to you that way, if she continues, don't respond -The PP who suggested "helping" her is spot on as well, if you ask her to clean up her toys and she is not, just start putting things in her hands and cleaning up with her -Hitting and other physical behavior definitely warrant time outs, calmly (emotionless) tell her why she is being put in time out and then follow the minute per year of age rule. Follow up with a reminder at the end why you put her in time out and suggest (I usually require it) an apology at the end. Good luck OP.[/quote]
