Bytemi My daughter has been getting time outs since she learned to walk around 11 months old. She cries and I hate to see it, but she needs to learn to listen. We have a time out wall, she goes and stands next to for 1 minute for each year of her age. It seems to...

baileym11 I say no very firmly and tap her hand if she is doing something she isn't supposed to. Mine is 19 months old and the tantrums are tremendous. She can lie on the floor and scream for 20 minutes. I try not to give her any attention during these times, positive...

missmuffet When my son was small he had ads. Psychology worked great with him. If I told him to pick up his toys he would ignore me or say no. If I would sau, "you are getting such big miscles I bet you could pick these toys up really fast." He would smile and take...

mommycrat Consistency is key, along with immediate consequences. At 16 mos, he may forget what he did 30 secs into his timeout. I taught toddlers, and the biggest thing we did was redirection. Instead of just "no," we would say something like, "We don't use our hands to...

nypage I had a hard time with my litte guy when he was a little younger. We started time outs at around 1 year or after and started with 1 min. He wasn't responding to the time out so we upped his time to two minutes. That worked like a charm. We explained to...

WAHSIS well maybe it is the wrong way but it works for me to make them take a nap when they start fighting and throwing fits and tantrums. It works for me very well. I give them an ultimatum. Either you stop right now or go take a nap. They straighten up real fast...

chaygylmommy I was going to say "time outs",but you said you do that. You can spat his hands when he does things and touches things he's not supposed to...I did that with my kids and they learned quickly what to touch and what not to touch. Not a hard SLAP, but a light...

hedonistic I suppose you must try to make him understand what are the after effects of such activities. I understand that it is very difficult to decide whether to be strict or lenient to them as they are only children. But we must knoe where to draw the line. I would...

Ravenladyj As hard as it is to not laugh (my kids at that age had us in stitches CONSTANTLY because they were such hams LOL they still are) you really should try putting on the fake mad face and give a very firm "NO" plus the time outs of course..he'll get the hang of...

Lemongrass18 Threats work wonders. Reward him when he listens and explain to him the danger that may happened when he did was wrong. You will need alot of patients in disciplining kids that age. Time out is another good option.

carlaabt I think it depends on what you are disciplining him for. I have a son that will be 1 on Thursday. If he is doing something that could hurt him or someone else, we spank his fingers and explain why we have to do it. There are some things that kids need to...

highflyingxangel Sounds like you're doing a good job right now. Consistency with disciplining toddlers is the key. Tell him no, explain why he shouldn't do it, and take him away from the situation. Toddlers always test the waters and always want to explore. Redirect him to...

montanagal78 I think time out is pretty good! Thats what im doing now with our 3 kids and it is helping so far. I read that you are supposed to put them in time out every minute for every year old they are so my son who is 3 gets 3 mins.
