when your preschool is doing something bad what to you do ?

I put brandon is the corner but that doesn't last very long so Ihave to put him in his room .

If we are out he gets a spanking and is to sit in the carriage.

this boy doesn't listen he was running around the store yesterday playing with a ball I was sweating trying to get him to stop when I put him in the carriage he screamed to walk also saying sorry mom how can I get him to listen ?

Connor just sits in a chair at the dining room table, I don't really have a specific amount of time. usually when he calms down and can tell me why he had to sit there he is allowed to get down. When we are out I just pull him aside and kneel down and tell him to knock it off VERY firmly. He is pretty good so I am lucky. I threaten that we will go home alot too.

You need Cassandra's advice here! She's our discipline expert! Just kidding, Cassandra!

But I'll guess she'd say that consistency is key in getting them to listen and behave.

We do time-outs with Vanessa but they don't always work. She'll get out of time-out and still be bad. We have tried asking her if she knows why she's in time-out and 50% of the time she's clueless and she'll say "I need to be nice?"

Hang in there. I've been through the sweating, anxiety attacks at the store with a screaming, running child too! It's embarrassing but remember, we've all been there at one time or another.

Lily is put in a timeout in a chair. If we are out, I take her to the bathroom to scold her and tell her what she is doing wrong and then if she still acts up she gets a spanking and we leave.

The boys get sent to separate corners (usually if one is in trouble, they both are in trouble ) Honestly, with my two, separating them is the worst punishment. Which sucks b/c next month when Daniel starts Kindergarten, they are going to be in different schools. They have to stay in time out until they have sat calmly and quietly for 4-5 minutes. If they talk or start crying or throwing a fit, their time starts over. For serious offenses, something that could hurt them or someone else, they get spankings. In a store or restaurant, if they act up we go to the bathroom and they get a good talking to. If they continue to act up, we got back to the bathroom and they get a spanking.
