How did your parents punish you?
Answers: When we did something wrong, my dad would spank us. But I'll tell you this - we never dare to do the same wrong article twice! lol. Whenever I did something wrong, by the time I was ten years hoary, I must have have supersonic hearing because I could hear my dad's leather belt swishing through his belt loops to spank me, and boy you RAN. But, we're adjectives the better for it, it didn't harm us contained by any way (except our bottoms for a couple of seconds), but it qualified us the lesson that needed to be learned effectively. No amount of time outs or reasoning next to us would have worked - it be discipline that we needed, and it was discipline that we be given. I'm thankful that my parents care enough around me to discipline me. :) I personally believe that more parents today should do indistinguishable - parents aren't supposed to be friends, they're supposed to be PARENTS! Amen! Good question!
Mine spanked... and sometimes they over did it. I still enjoy bitterness towards them for that... mainly because at times she seem to enjoy the "power".
I get my booty spanked how about you?
my dad be good at hitting me within the head.but my brothers get the iron cord
my mom taught us what she expected of us... we behave because we did not want to disapoint her, that was the worst punishment!
we solely got one spanking that i can remember and we have burned my youngest brothers hand on the stove... so i influence we deserved it!! (and we NEVER did anything like it again)
Yelling, spanking, removing privledges - didn't work massively well IMO!
There are alternatives to punishment, a great book for more info is Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Kohn, libraries other have it.
My parents would try to thieve things away but it didn't work, or they would yell. I never get spanked. I was a brat and I have control over them. I wish I would've be disciplined right though.
My Mother spanked and then set me to work helping around the house - and I am glad for it because I be a real tomboy and could enjoy got into more trouble than my brothers if she hadn't own kept an eye on me.
Yet one sharp word from my Father was much worse!
Best wishes,
Joan.
they threatened to different things and next never went through next to any of it.
Mine tore me up every chance they get. I tell you though, I would not own pulled the crap that a lot of kids today verbs.
Yelling, guilt, manipulation, threats of violence beside occasional follow through.
With my little sis they picked up a skill - persuasion/fear. Example: "You don't want to turn out like your sister do you?" lol.
Well I know for a reality that in today's familial life parents by no scheme punish their children as we were punished rear legs in the days of our youth. My mom used a studded belt that my brother used yes this is no deceit, or you got the pay for end of a broom manipulate, or an old electrical chord lying around, trust me I go to school beside welts on my legs and pay for some were discernible and luckily some were not. I also have very long gelatinous hair so yep you get it I use to get dragged by the spike. There is no fiction in this statement , gospel truth.
You label it I got it! My mom never abused me though. I thank God for that! She never call it spanking, she always call it disciplining.
*I got the soap - insert soap surrounded by mouth to avoid dirty words
*the frequent visits to the "corner" - a time to presume on what I did wrong
*the restrictions (almost every day) - a LONG period of time to aspiration I hadn't got caught for doing something I shouldn't own done.
* the sentences and the paragraphs - another route to allow me to think roughly speaking what I had done wrong
*the repeat treatment - to be precise one of the worst! - this is where for example... You voice "I hate you". You will hold to sit in the middle of the room and while self timed for 15 minutes you will repeat the offensive words until the time is up - make you so tired of saying that word or phrase that you NEVER want to enunciate it again! And what was so a scream was when my brother and I said desperate words we both would have to facade each other and right to be heard the word we shouldn't say. We made a team game out of this until my mom made us start over! LOL!
*the hug method - this is where the character you hurt, you were made to hug
***there are several other ways of punishment too!
Shouldn't in attendance be another part to this sound out, like "how did you turn out" also?
I reflect my parents didn't know how to correct behavior in children and finished up doing everything that they were skilled which was still wrong. Abuse is what I telephone call it. You name it, they did it. We have a board with our name on it! We also had a willow tree contained by the yard that lost closely of branches...
I turned out to be a better parent because I did not want to follow in their footsteps and come to enjoy my children think that they be abused and not just punished for their behavior. The spankings are long gone and the youngest is 6 so I am doing righteous. The youngest ones still get loss of privileges and corner time. The elder two get grounded. But we also keep hold of them very busy near other things so they have dutiful things to focus on and stay out of trouble. I never had a 10th of the opportunity as my kids have. I merely had to be home by menacing, oh boy, now that be some horrible supervision.
I still cry if I have to force them to do something AND they cry too. They know that its my available job to parent them and I will always be here, long after the friends move on, girlfriends dump them, and they will other know where "home" is.
I be spanked only once remember, and that be when I climbed onto the roof at the age of about 4.
Scoldings be effective. I loathed to disappoint my parents.
yell , ground ,hold things away
When I was younger, they would spank me. Now that I am a short time older, they pocket things away from me such as my macbook, ipod, television, computer, and other things that I am addicted to.
When I be younger, I was spanked. But as I grew elder, I was disciplined beside groundings and lectures. It set me straight (not that I was ever THAT bad).
they have my younger bro when I was 11. Every time they go out I was the one they other had watching him and at the age of 16 I have the chance to work a material job but no my mom required me to stay home and watch my brother. To this daytime I still am mad going on for it but bad piece is I have a 2 year frail son
Yelling, crying, lectures, pleading were regulars surrounded by my house. I wasn't spanked ever. I also got "grounded" but when NO ONE is home for close to 15 hrs a day i swear its completely impossible to actually consider yourself or your kid grounded. My mom also like extra chores or sentenes. I never really felt close to io was really disciplined...i regard as its cause my mom be so stresed and dysfuctional home. I wish i have been more properly disciplined though...even if that intended spankings....not that i was a unpromising kid but i never really learned any.
I can remember my mom spanking me a few times. Mostly I just have to sit in a stool for a while. My dad only have to yell and I straightened up.
I get my rear expire smacked! And guess what, I am not emotionally scarred or crazy or uncontrolled! Can you believe IT!
Spanked by hand or by flex hangar. Got hit with a broom stick a couple of times and locked outside till my ripened man got home at midnight. but my parents have to be hard on us and it in truth kept my brothers and I out of trouble. we feared our parents more than the gang member :)
well wen i be younger my mother would punish me depending on what i did.....if i liked curised @ the mentor or hit my mom she would spank me. and then put me on punishment...or if approaching i did somthing like doing something she said not to do she put me surrounded by the corner put now that im elder and i could probly beat her up <(which i would never do) she will transport something from me and wont let me be in motion out
Wow, I read most of these answers and so far no one have my punishment. When my brother and I were "bad" or loud my dad would product one of us sit in the shower (fully clothed, only bored, uncomfortable and cold) and one sit surrounded by the front bathroom tub. I actually assume it's a great punishment... much better than the belt I got on incident or the metal hanger or whatever be around.
Usually it was spanking, for almost everything. We use other methods first, when those break down, we turn put money on to what always seem to work (spanking).
My mom spanked me for not brushing my teeth and slapped me in the obverse when I forgot to practice my violin. That was when I be probably 7 or 8 years old. I don't know if it have affected me very soon, but I know that I became soooo used to man punished, that it sometimes felt devout to be hit. I think I begin feeling uneasy when she stopped punishing me, but very soon I'm used to my freedom.
