I agree, it's what the parents agree to. To me though, time out seems to be the only safe one that a care giver can give.

its up to the parent Not really!If a parent believes in smacking their kids or washing their mouths out with soap, a caregiver has no right to do that any nore than the parent does. |

Time Out..... if child is still unruley..call the parents to come get them. I used to work in child care and it can be tough!! Times out only work if you do not have to use force to keep them there . Things don't go the way they do for supernanny in real life |

Things don't go the way they do for supernanny in real life It can be tough even for parents, I know! Being a parent of 2. But usually kids will do things for others that they wouldnt dream of doing for parents (listening, following directions) because they don't know what they can get away with, with someone else. lol |

But depending on the age of the child I would try reasoning with them and try to explain what they did wrong. If they were old enough I would often just ask why they were behaving this way and quite often was surprised at their answers' |

Talking is fine and can work if the child is removed from the presence of others. I find when you try and talk to a child in the presence of others they truly cant concentrate (speaking of younguns). |

I'm not answering as a parent here, but as a caregiver. In our family, we all discipline the children the same, so no rules have been needed yet.
When dealing with my nieces, nephews and cousins...taking and giving privileges has always been pretty effective. But only as much as they believe you will follow through with the threat. |

Yes i agree Fran. I think times out don,t work cause the kids are too angry and upset to sit and be quite. Tha t is why I prefer to get on my knees at their level and just talk in a calm soothing way , it usually worked.

But still to this day, I do find that it works to remove the child from the place where unruliness occurred, speak to him/her and like No1s mentioned, as it's normally family members I watch and take care off - they do lose priviledges. But at all times I am in control not the children |

Caring for children is a very difficult job. Iloved the kids but glad I'm done with it!
I read somewhere that people spend more time reasearching their mechanic than they do their childs caregiver? I am curious as how much research people do put into selecting a caregiver for their children.. |

so do I.
I know I had such a hard time when mine was young and the research was extensive, imagine nowadays... |
