Mom's Time Out

I just got out of time out. I was on the phone and said "stupid" and Connor was right there. He said "Mom! That was a bad word!". So, he said I had to go to time out in my bathroom. Here's how it went:

"You have to go to the bathroom for 99 minutes. If you throw a fit you get longer. You cannot play with anything (at this point he came and took my phone away and closed the bathroom cabinets). Now, I will be back."

When he came back he sat down on the floor next to me and proceeded with the following:

"I KNOW it's hard but you can't say bad words. I KNOW it's hard. You will learn. But it's over now and we forget about it. You can go now. (Gives me a hug). Here's your phone."
