A Typical Day in Timeout

So, here is a common scenario in our house. Kylie wants to practice her piano. Since we don't have a piano, we have a keyboard that I keep by the fireplace so she practices. Kylie goes about practicing and out of the corner comes Karly to pound on some keys or just annoy her in general. Kylie responds by yelling at Karly and burst into tears because Karly never leaves her alone. Karly gets put in timeout where she makes such a commotion that it in the end distracts Kylie even more. Kylie than proceeds to the timeout to rub Karly's back or make her stop crying because she feels bad. Sometimes she does go to make it worse for Karly. Such a vicious cycle. I had my camera out the other day so here is the scenario played out in pictures.
