Sometimes it is Okay to Take a Time Out! As a parent or caregiver, when you are feeling overwhelmed with your children and their emotions (or yours), it is okay to take a 2 minute time out to regroup.

In fact, it is better for you to take 2 minutes to sit in a room by yourself and breath, while your child is safe in their room or a play pen than to let your emotions get the best of you. As long as the child in your care is safe and you stick to no more than 2 minutes away, taking a moment to get a grip can do wonders for your mood.
