About ten seconds.
Ten seconds. Not much to ask of yourself, if it keeps you from striking out at your child. So, the next time you feel things getting out of hand, don't hit. Count to 10... to 20... to whatever it takes for you to realize that hurting your child isn't the answer. We can help too. For a free booklet, write to "Good Discipline," P.O. Box 2866D, Chicago, IL 60690.

Take time out.
Don't take it out on your child.
