POSITIVE PARENTING'S

Groundbreaking Time-Out Alternative:

the time-in
Are you tired OF...

yelling,
taking away privileges,
& having to demand apologies?

If time-outs have you feeling disconnected or aren’t producing results, it may be time for a time-IN…

CONNECTION
  • Time-outs prioritize punishment
  • Time-outs build walls of isolation
  • Time-outs create feelings of shame & resentment
  • Time-outs teach kids to suppress emotions
  • Time-outs teach kids to blindly obey
GROWING TOGETHER
  • Time-ins prioritize teaching
  • Time-ins build connection
  • Time-ins create feelings of acceptance and love
  • Time-ins validate all feelings (*not behaviors)
  • Time-ins empower kids to collaborate & problem-solve
Time-ins are carefully constructed conversations about big feelings and behaviors.
