The corner of punishment or thinking is also known as time out, since it is used for children to think about what they did. It can be a chair in a corner, a solitary space or even the child's room, depending on where you are. Some people consider that this method is the most passive punishment that exists, but others consider that it does not help, nor does it teach the children.
Positive or negative?
I have been able to verify that this topic generates different nuances from the point of view that each person has, since some consider it to be very good and it helps that the child can think about what he did and not repeat negative actions. When this becomes a habit the child will think before having a negative attitude, since he knows that he will be sending to the corner, without toys or some fun instrument.
On the other hand, some consider that this action is negative, since according to the age, the children do not have the capacity to recognize the negative of their attitudes, rather send it to the corner generates confusion, stress and anger for the punishment. All this is taken into account because you do not really know what a child thinks about his time out.
Should teachers use time out with their students?
Time out is a method that can be applied for a few minutes, but first you must explain it because you are being sent to the corner, which you did wrong, and that you should not do it again. Children at an early age are very vulnerable and that is when there should be good communication.
There must be certain limits between teachers and students, so that respect prevails first of all. And it is known that working with children is not easy, rather it is a great task to be able to take care of more than ten children in a classroom, since they do not have the capacity to reason. That is why the most important task is to educate through different tools that establish values and good behavior in children.
The type of punishment will also depend on the age and personality of each child, not all are equal.
Conclusion.
There must be a punishment on the part of the parents and teachers, to adapt a correct behavior, the children as they grow up, before walking they crawl, and before starting to run they must fall, all this they do instinctively, it is in that moment as adults we should teach him the real world. The correct form is communication, always explain the things that happen around you and how you can act, in addition to creating habits that will later be routines. It is what is nowadays called educational punishment. As my mother said, consenting is not education.
Parents should not feel insecure when they put character, nor should they doubt their actions as long as they are correct. Before questioning the attitude of teachers towards their children, they must also establish a dialogue to know what happened and thus be able to express an opinion and be able to work as a team. Communication is everything.
