This is how programers deal with Kids' time-outs, make an app because they are lazy :)

I'm pretty sure any psychologist would trash this application, but having to deal with my 2 kids, i have to say, should at least be fun to use it as long as you don't think this is an educational tool.

Edit for format. (my first reply to a thread!)

We agree with you, this was an attempt to tracking the time and providing some fun with the punishment wheel, in no way was meant to be a "Parenting" guide.

Interesting app....but do kids really think it's cool to get time outs even if they are done on mobile?
