So Mad got in a little trouble the other night and ended up in a time out--kinda. It consisted of sitting in one of our living room chairs, "thinking it over," while trying to get her Ema to talk to her and let her out of her prison. After she sat there for a bit, I explained to her that she seemed to be able to be respectful to her art camp counselor and our friends who take care of her some afternoons, but that when she gets home she seems to have a difficult time being respectful to us. Then I asked her what she thought we might do to improve this situation and what better choices she might make. Her response: "I'm going to need another couple minutes."
