Threatening you and recording you without your consent is much more serious than your putting a 1 year old on time out. Why not just tell you that they’d rather you use another form of discipline?

And how old was this child? Was she 13 months or 22 months? There is a difference in how you might handle inappropriate behavior in the two ages. Personally I wouldn’t use a time out with a child who had just turned 1 but a toddler about to turn 2 needs to learn that certain behaviors have not so good consequences. I don’t call it a time-out but if a 23 month old hits his classmate I take him by the hand and have him sit by himself for a minute.
