What if my child´s behavior improves while in time-out?
Child Wants Out of Time-Out
If a child suddenly says they will be good and want out of time-out, do not give in. This gives the child the impression that s/he is in control instead of you. Instead, say something like, "I see you are now sitting quiet. Great! I decide when time-out is over and you still have a few minutes left."
