POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 years agoA. Stay calm. If you tell your child to go to time-out and they ignore you, add 1 minute to their time-out. If they don't go again, add another minute. If they ignore you a third time, don't pick them up and drag them to time-out -- that can make things worse, and the attention, even negative attention, may unintentionally reinforce the behavior.
"Instead, impose a consequence that means a lot, such as no video games for the rest of the day," Allan says. "Deliver that consequence calmly and don't talk about it further. Even if they say, ‘I'll listen, I'll go into time-out now,' don't give in!"
A prompt such as a timer to signal the beginning and end of a time out may help. If your child won’t cooperate, remind them that the time-out can't start until they are quietly in their time-out spot.
