Yesterday Chancery got a time-out, & she stomped her way to the stairs
for her 6 minute punishment. When it was over, I told her to come & talk to
me.
Chancery: “Do you forgive me, Mummy?”
Me: “Yes, I forgive you. Will you try not to do that again?”
Chancery: “Yes, I’ll try not to do that again… Are all of my 6 minutes
over?”
Me: “Yes.”
Chancery: “Six minutes is quick!”
Me: “Should I give you longer time-outs? I’ll have to give you another
minute when you turn 7, but should I just start giving you longer ones now?”
Chancery: “Well, when I turn 7, you can give me 8 minutes then, ok?”
Me: “Well, we’ll try 7 minutes & see how it goes.”
Chancery: “Ok, I just like asking if you’ll forgive me at the end of
them.”
