Time Out

After Mia's wrath of physical violence and outright refusal to do things, we have decided to institute a new Time-Out policy. So far, we have been placing Amelia on a small mat in the corner for 1 minute at a time when she acts up. I'm not sure if she is actually learning any lessons, but I can tell you she really, really hates sitting in time-out. Will this corner of doom teach Amelia to stop beating on people or will it build a rage inside her? I suppose only time will tell. Just in case it is the latter, I apologize in advance to the parents of the children in her class.
