Shawn is in 3rd grade. Mason is...??? Definately in the learning age though. We have started time outs. He has very naughty days, he knows no better...yet!
Great Grandma deBoer gave us a small chair which he loves! Its the perfect small fit for a corner...so we named it the "time out" chair. He sits there, he cries, but he sits there. Somedays I think being an "auntie al" was easier. Less rewarding though!!!
p.s. Momma and Daddy cry too...:( Its a crummy job, but someone has to do it.

oh, the wonderful time-outs... someday our kids will understand that it hurts us more than it hurts them! i took a photo of cole's first time-out; he looked so small in the chair (just one of our living room chairs) and a wee bit confused. he didn't cry for that one :)
It is hard but starting early is soooo much easier than when they are school age. I see it all the time and....ugh =-(
But discipline doesn't get any easier as they get older.
