Caught with Timeout Contraband

They fight like brothers do, but don’t get between them, because their bond is as strong as twin brothers can be. As we endure the training regiment necessary to groom fine young men, it is necessary on a regular basis to sentence one or both boys to the timeout area in order to calm them down, get their attention or reprimand bad behavior. On this particular day, Benji was the offender and was serving his sentence in the red chair. To comfort him, Davey brought the wrongdoer a snack and voluntarily served the penalty time kneeling beside his brother until Benji’s liberty was restored. At the moment of this photo, neither boy was sure whether this show of unity was acceptable behavior or another offence.
