Tonight Max decided he'd had enough of "Time Out." I set him on his bed and closed the door to his screaming. About 30 seconds later, I heard a banging added to the screaming and about 10 seconds after that I heard a shattering sound. I opened his door to see my not-so-sweet, very red faced, toddler standing there with a plastic hammer in his hand and a fairly surprised look on his face. I said "What did you break?!?" He responded by pointing the the corner of the room where the door lock lay in pieces.
I think we need a new strategy for "Time Out."

LOL! OMG Kelli that is too funny! Isabelle isn't a fan of time out either!
WOW - that took some serious breakout skill!!! I feel for ya as amommy, but I am IMPRESSED!
We had to do the same thing with Brayden (childproof lock on inside of bedroom door). Thankfully, there were no hammers around for the great escape. (However, I am sure Brayden had bruised hands and feet for all the pounding and kicking that took place on that poor door). On a hopeful note, it was a short-lived phase.
