Literal question
Gave him/her something else to do.
Interviewer instructions
This question is designed to capture another non-violent discipline technique, diverting the child's attention from the incorrect behaviour. A parent/caretaker may try to distract the child from doing the unsuitable behaviour by giving the child something else to do in its place. If the respondent does not understand, you may add a probe: “This means distracting the child or helping the child pay attention to something else.”
