Time-out is a loss-of-privilege penalty that is effective because it immediately stops disruptive behavior. |
Definition of Time-Out. Time-out is easy to understand in sports--it is a brief interruption of the action. In discipline, it is a brief (you hope) interruption of your child's disruptive behavior. If your child is very angry or actually having a tantrum, time-outs can be a very effective form of discipline. |

When time-out is used for discipline, it is brief and less emotional and abusive than other forms of discipline |
Time-out is a loss-of-privilege penalty. It is used to stop behaviors, not start behaviors. It works because it takes the child away from the action, attention, or toy rather than taking the attention, action or toy away from the child. Time-out is used to stop a negative behavior by removing your child from the area of trouble, then placing the child in an isolated area. This is effective because it immediately stops the disruptive behavior. |
