Smart Punishments For Kids When Time Out No Longer Works
7. Creative Punishments for Kids
1.Make the sibling’s bed or do their chores
– When the poor behavior is being mean to a sibling a great natural consequence is that they have to do something for the sibling. I use making the other’s bed or doing the other kids chore for the day. I tried this and I found that the offended sibling really likes this as a punishment for the sibling that bothered them. They can then get over the issue really fast because they feel vindicated.
2. Early bedtime/No books
– This one works great for my older boys. They really like to stay up later than their younger sister so it is painful to them to have to go to bed the same time as her. And that’s when I realized this is a great punishment for the two older boys…when they really fought it. For a punishment to be effective it has to be a real pain point for them and this is one my boys best ones.
3. Pay to Fight
– I have always loved the book Love & Logic by Foster Cline. I highly recommend it. One of my favorite tips is to charge kids $1.00 a minute to listen to them fight. If they don’t have the money they must earn the money by doing chores.
4. Writing Sentences
– Let’s go old school here. Writing “I will not disrespect my mom.” 50 times can be a great incentive for them to not do it again.
5. Extra Chores
– There are all sorts of systems for this method. Some assign tasks based on the offense. Such as not listening means 1 room of baseboards cleaned. Some have a jar filled with slips of paper with chores on them and the child must pick a chore out of the jar.
6. No PlayDates
– I have never been able to do this because I feel it punishes another child who has been planning and looking forward to it but sometimes we need a total reset. I actually have done something really sneaky to make this work for us.
7. Positive Incentive Charts
– I had to add this because we all know we are supposed to reward positive behavior and hope it limits the punishments needed. I completely agree but let’s get real…we sometimes need punishments for kids with bad behavior too. Let’s just make sure we are rewarding the good behavior in our house at the same time.
Which Netflix Comedy Should You Binge Watch Next?
Witchblr, get excited. Charmed is getting a reboot—and this time around, the showrunners realize the importance of representation. The series will star women of color and at least one character a member of the LGBTQ community.
Actresses Madeleine Mantock, Melonie Diaz, and Sarah Jeffery demonstrated just how happy that makes us when we ran into them at SDCC.
You have your whole life ahead of you. Be smart. Study hard and be independent…You must rely on yourself. No matter what else people may steal from you, they will never be able to take away your knowledge. The world is changing. You must make your own life outside this home.

Jon Heder’s Comedy-Thriller ‘Ghost Team’ Bought by the Orchard
The Orchard has acquired North American, U.K., Australian and New Zealand distribution rights to comedy-thriller “Ghost Team,” starring Jon Heder, David Krumholtz, Melonie Diaz and Paul W. Downs.
The film wrapped production last week and is slated for release at the end of 2016. Justin Long and Amy Sedaris also star.
Oliver Irving directed from a script by Peter Warren. Producers are Julie Christeas and Schuyler Weiss of Tandem Pictures, Alex Sagalchik of Mott Street Pictures, and Clem McIntosh and Oliver Irving. Kevin Iwashina of Preferred Content will executive produce.
Heder plays a paranormal-obsessed man who mounts his own investigation into the beyond with his depressed best friend, misfit nephew, a cable access medium and an overeager security guard. What results includes a terrifying brush with the entities haunting an abandoned farm.
The Orchard recently announced acquisitions of the horror film “Demon.” Recent releases include “Nasty Baby,” “The Overnight,” “Digging for Fire,” “Finders Keepers” and “Cartel Land.”
The deal was negotiated by Danielle DiGiacomo of the Orchard with Marc Bortz of Preferred Content, Marc Simon of Cowan Debaets Abrahams and Sheppard LLP on behalf of the filmmakers.

To get what you want, STOP doing what isn’t working. - Dennis Weaver

“Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.”

It’s painful to look at the ways you’ve limited yourself, but you need to look. You are the catalyst for the change you’ve been yearning for. I promise you won’t die. You will come alive. Change is necessary. Don’t be afraid to shed your skin.

You cannot use someone else’s fire; you can only use your own. And in order to do that, you must first be willing to believe you have it.
