i grew up with no time-outs btw. at one point a friend's parent tried to put me in one and i was confused because i'd literally never been introduced to the concept. when they explained that i had to sit still and not move i asked "but what's stopping me from just walking away"

@owenbroadcast

i will never give parenting advice (guarantee). posting this comic from a book called ‘no-drama discipline’ because i never stopped thinking about it. had many interesting discussions with people about it. [image]

i have basically no intuition that "child discipline" is either necessary or helpful to the children

tbc i don't have a strong positive case against it either and im aware generalizing across all children from literally me and my sister is pretty insane. different kids are different im sure
