There's a way to eliminate children's misbehavior - a method that doesn't involve anger, lectures, or physical force. The time-out approach, which has long been touted by child-rearing experts as the most humane means of shaping a child's behavior, imposes limits instead of punishment, and encourages self-control rather than self-loathing. When used correctly, time-out is simple and amazingly effective. Time-Out for Children, with its concise text, case histories, lists, and step-by-step instructions, presents important information in a manner that is both easy and fascinating to read. Most important, you can use this book to affirm that encouraging your child's good behaviour is right on target.
