Sounded more like quarantine. Time-out definitely is appropriate for biting another kid. - Beryllium Sep 9, 19:02 8
- unfortunately, from what i'm reading from quick googles, it seems like isolating is actually recommended to deal with biting in daycare. - TFox Sep 9, 19:06 4
  - *ding* "He/she may just be overtired" - every night this week he's slept from 7PM to 5AM. That's fucking unheard of. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 9, 19:09 1
    - (hah, I just realized that a non-parent would have no idea what this meant.) - Beryllium Sep 9, 19:11
  - separating is different than actual isolation, though. -- nm - b. Sep 9, 19:08 1
    - Indeed, and they recommend at that link having the biter help in the treatment process ... that would be useless for baby k, he wouldn't understand .. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 9, 19:09
- IANAP, but do they understsand timeout at 14 months? -- nm - loosilu Sep 9, 19:06
- does a 14-month old understand isolation, though? some kind of time-out, like a "time-out" chair or another nanny thing is one thing..but there's no - b. Sep 9, 19:05 1
  - from what i'm reading, the isolation is less about teaching the biter, and more about protecting the other kids. - TFox Sep 9, 19:08
