I do timeouts. One minute per age of kid no longer than 10 minutes. I have had a 1 year old in time out for 10 minutes because of bitting and calming the other child down. I place the kid in a corner in a different room than the action occured if possible but within sight or hearing of me. I don't use them often. Sometimes I do a wide spread time out where everyone sits right where they are including me and I calm down while counting to 30. Then I tell them all what was going on and what I didn't like about it. Then we all get up and continue our day.
