Time Out!

Time Out!

I walked out of my office and heard the teacher and student. It was pretty clear what had just transpired.

Just like in America kids need a time out every now and again. The little boy's face was flush and red, his feelings hurt, and his body language said it all.

It doesn't matter if you're Slovak or American. When your only 10 years old and another kid takes advantage of you at recess the teacher never sees the whole thing.

What's the remedy?  Take some time to settle and calm and catch your breath, and then maybe in a few minutes the world might be a better place.
