They have caught Oliver running with scissors for the 6th time this week and they are fed upNone of the above choices .The child has a bad temper and they are sick of his frequent outburstsOliver refuses to eat all of his vegetables and they are annoyed that he has poor nutrition
Why is the person upset with Oliver and why are they trying to discipline him ?
Persistent " No ! " s and slaps to the hand did nothing to deter Oliver so I had to give him time out . The problem is that all the walls were paper , so I was limited in where I could put him other than in the futon cupboard . I did n't feel right shoving him in a cupboard , so eventually I did find a room that did n't have paper walls - the Genkan ! For those of you unfamiliar with Japanese domestic architecture , the Genkan is the tiny room you first enter where you take your shoes off .
