Behaviour Management for 1 year old

[lunademiel]

Play pen, play yard or exersaucer for time outs for a one year old. You touch you get trapped.

Thank you for the advice. How long would you keep them in there? And what if they are screaming their head off? I really want to be in control here, I'm not right now and I can't be a good provider if I don't figure it out!

Thank you!

I can't even imagine giving a time out to a 1 year old. Are we talking a 12 month old ?
The purpose of a time out is for the child to reflect on the behaviour.
What is the point of a time out at that age where a child cannot process that actions have consequences yet, have no self awareness and cannot reflect or correct themselves? It is not the same as giving a 2 or 3 year old a time out where they can communicate and understand
