Tales from Time Out by Ph. D. Henry J. Roth Book PDF Summary
Henry Roth spent sixteen years as Principal of a Therapeutic Day School with a highly diverse student population from all socioeconomic levels, including Orthodox Jewish students. All of these students had been transferred from their local public, private, or parochial schools due to emotional and behavioral problems. Henry had the opportunity to spend time conversing with students who were sent to "time-out" for various misbehaviors at school. TALES FROM TIME-OUT is a collection of vignettes relating some of the more memorable exchanges that Henry had in his conversations with students in time-out, followed by a brief overview of some of the background issues of the students' unique circumstances. A section is included that offers some strategies for dealing with children in time-out situations. TALES FROM TIME-OUT appeals to a diverse audience of parents and professionals -- but also to anyone who believes in the healing power of humor.
