In fact that was often the only thing he was allowed to have in timeout. I would try taking away other things. For awhile putting favorite toys on top of the refridgerator worked or lsoing the right to watch a special TV show.<BR/>Dang this parenting thing is hard. I lost it with mine yesterday and he is 9 now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040734.post-14166717466901413052007-03-13T16:06:00.000-07:002007-03-13T16:06:00.000-07:00Taking stuff away worked well for 3 of my boys.

A week and a half ago, he was so uncaring about being grounded from his stuff that I boxed his whole room up (he's 7) and let me tell you, he didn't see that coming!Azgreeneyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13401125056771682803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040734.post-2714433468883742007-03-11T20:23:00.000-07:002007-03-11T20:23:00.000-07:00My son Daniel was similar - time out only meant im...My son Daniel was similar - time out only meant imaginary playtime for him, he would run pretend cars up the walls while he was in time out and it never phased him.
