why do parents send their children to their rooms when they have all their funny stuff there?

When my 4 yr old son is sent to his room, he must sit on his bed and cannot play with his toys. I send him there so that I can cool off, before talking to him about what got him there in the first place.

We also have a "time out" stool in the kitchen that we use. The bedroom punishment is for the really bad behavoir!

I send my children to their rooms. They sit on their bed until the punishment is over. If they are caught playing with anything, its taken away for a week and the time is extended that they must sit there. My kids are more punished by being seperate from the family instead of a part of it. Especially when they can hear the fun but not see it. Just one of many discipline tricks in my bag. It works for us.

When my children misbehave I send them to their room but I don't let them play. It is a time-out on their bed, back against the wall, no toys within reach. That way they can think about why they are being punished and, if I am really upset, I can calm down too.

We have our kids go to their room when they do things there not suppose to do. Their not allowed TV,toy's or anything we think they might have fun doing by themselves. Then we top that off with at least 4 chapters form a book which they get to choose. It might not sound like punishment but they also have to tell us what they read. Little do they know we have no idea what they read and if what they tell us is accurate but it really makes them smarter. It also gives us a break from the bickering all siblings seem to do.

Reading is fundamental.

When my kids act up they get sent to a timeout chair. If my daughter is driving me nuts, but not being naughty I ask her to go to her room. I don't believe their room should be used as a punishment. I remember being sent to my room if I was naughty as a child, but I also remember thinking, okay no big deal. Now I can play with all my stuff. I think I even mentioned this to my stepmother and she just rolled her eyes at me.

I send my kids totheir rooms so they can calm down. Making them sit in front of me while they try to calm down seems counter productive cuz they're going to try to use that time to convince me that what the did was not wrong. I'll also send myself to my room. Sometimes people need breaks. It's not always about punishment.

i did not mis-behave commonly. yet after I did, my dad and mom knew merely to make me conflict through... I lost my telephone privilege. I grew up formerly cellphones existed. I used to speak with my suited pal, on the phone for hours, after college. I also lost get admission to to the stereo and tv. In later years, as an adolescent, i'd be grounded, and my mom might want to call the faculty, clarify that i grow to be grounded and function all my instructors provide me more effective homework, and by no skill for any more effective credit both. definite, childrens on the prompt, have their personal "luxury motel" interior their rooms, and "timeout" doesn't make sense because of those luxury accomodations. yet possibly dad and mom who placed those ammenities of their newborn's room could also eliminate them if punishment contains being despatched to their rooms.

When my son is sent to his room it's not to play X-Box, it's to sit on his bed, doing nothing, with the door open for a period of time that I feel is appropriate for the infraction.

honestly i don't know my parents always sent us to our rooms so yes i send mine to his but he does know that while he is in his room he is not allowed to play on punshment a reason could be because if they stay in the room with u they can watch tv and other stuff

Sometimes I send my kids to their rooms because they need time away from other people. They don't always need to be punished, just time away to themselves.
