I know that this has probably been covered in loads of other naughty step/ 4 year old discipline threads but I can't seem to find the exact answer to my question.
I would dearly like to use Time Out as a form of discipline for my son (4) but I just can't seem to get it to work.He will not stay on step or in room unless I resort to man handling him in there and holding door shut, which seems to be more like imprisonment to me than Time Out.
All the books I read seem to suggest that you can calmly return your child to the Time Out position but this is not my experience.
How have other people got it to work for them?
