Rylie has been put in lots of time outs recently because she is now getting one every time she shrieks/screams while inside. Apparently this is her "go to" move when she doesn't get what she wants, and also, apparently, she does not get what she wants a lot. Yesterday afternoon she got (at least) two time outs within about 20 minutes. Here's how they went:
Time out #1
Me: Rylie, why were you in time out?
Rylie (smiling): I in time out.
Me: Why?
Rylie: Why?
Me: You were in time out for screaming.
Rylie: Hug time?
Time out #2
Me: Rylie, why were you in time out?
Rylie: Cause Bingo was his name-o.
Me: No, for screaming. Do you have anything you want to say to Mommy? (I was looking for "sorry.")
Rylie: B. I. N. G. O.?
We may need a new tactic for teaching lessons around here.
