What was the HEAVIEST PUNISHMENT your PARENT ever DID to YOU? Why did you DESERVE that?

Did you really deserve that?


Was that punishment effective?


Would you do the same punishment toward your children?What was the HEAVIEST PUNISHMENT your PARENT ever DID to YOU? Why did you DESERVE that?
My dad's favorite was making me take responsibility for the dumb things I did as a teenager. He would let me have my way and when I screwed up he would stand there while I fixed it and discuss with me the reasons my original decision was wrong. Drove me crazy but taught me a lot. He never let me allow anything to slip, I had to take responsibility.





Yes, I deserved it, yes it was pure torture and I learned to stop and think before acting. Yes, once they are old enough to reason with, I use similar tactics on my own kids.What was the HEAVIEST PUNISHMENT your PARENT ever DID to YOU? Why did you DESERVE that?
I deserved every punishment handed out by my parents. Maybe not to the extent they went but nevertheless .... I was a bad kid when I was younger. Was it effective?? Obviously not since I kept doing the same stuff over and over lol





Some of the punishments I use on my daughter, to a lesser extent than my parents did. I'll try different punishments but once I find an effective one for the situation, I'll continue to use it. So ummmm I'm still searching for effective ones but hey, it's not for lack of effort!!
I was beaten untill I had welts on my back and bruises much of the rest of me. I didn't seserve it. No it wasn't effective punishment, it made me fearfull and I ran away that night and child protective service was called into my home. No I would not use it on my own children.
i had a stepfather that i didn't get along with ..





so his punishment for me was always worse than the other kids..





once he hit me across the back of the legs with an old jug cord(the one with thread on it ) that had been sitting in vinegar and salt..





it stung like nothing i felt before..


can still remember it..





it was all over me not calling him dad..





he was a total deadsh*t





would never do that to my kids the worse thing they get is no TV for the night...
My parents didn't believe in spanking but I was grounded for 1 week for stealing money from my bank without them knowing. Felt horrible,it was for school clothes. Makes me sad today
When I was in the 8th grade, I went to one of our jr. high school's football games. I was standing there watching when my mom came to get me and took me home. I didn't know what I had done wrong. I got home and dad was standing there screaming at me, slapped me in the face a few times told me that I was grounded. We were not allowed to give our phone number to anyone (I didn't even know it), and my brother's fiancee cousin called our house and said that I gave it to her. I tried to explain it to him, but he wouldn't listen. No I didn't deserve it. I was to scared of him to call the police on him. When I was about 12, he took me shoe shopping while at my Grandparents (mom's side), and I came back told Grandma I didn't like them of course he heard that came flying in the room, slapped me in the face, told me that I was ungrateful and a little brat. DIdn't deserve that either.
he punched me and started kicking me on the ground and that punishment was very effective and he only did that cause i was flunking school now that he did that to me i get straight a's.good luck!!!
my parents did not believe in spankings i can count the number of times i got spanked on one hand less 2 fingers 3 times growing up once when i was 5 7%26amp;9 what was worse for me was having my bike taken away longest time was 3wks no bike no friends no tv.i was 10 at time longest 3 wks of my life in the summer time.
once, i got grounded for a month by my dad b/c i got bad grades. i wasn't a great student. i think i was about 12 yrs. i guess i deserved it but i didn't think so at the time. after about a week, i was driving my mom nuts. she told me grounding was over so i would get out from under her feet. my dad didn't even realize it. god bless mom. it wasn't effective at all. i hated school anyway and never did get much better at it. i'd never ground my kids for a month. i'd go crazy.
I was akid then. Mum threw me out to the staircase to sleep and locked me out there for hours in the midnight. yeah I deserved it. Was crying and preventing her from sleeping for no good reason. Effective? Sure was. I never tried that again, even during the day
my mom made me wear my underwear on my head to the grocery store 'cause I wet the bed. I totally didn't deserve that.
when i was younger n talked back to my dad, he would dunk my head in water. i dont think i deserved a punishment THAT bad. it kinda was effective, i didnt talk back to him no more. now i do, but im too big for him to do that kinda stuff. i would never do that punishment to my kid though.
when I was in 9th grade my parents found weed and a home made bong in my room..I was at a friends house...my mom came and got me at 2am drug me home and made me go into my room where my dad was waiting for me ..he back handed me across the face and threatened to send me to boot camp..then they grounded me for 3 months...took my tv, vcr, sega, and web tv out of my room I was only allowed to go to school, church and home and when I was home they unplugged the phones so I would have no contact with the outside world!!! I remember my friends and I would count downt he days until I was off punishment everyday we would mark it on the lunch table ( only 64 days left!!! lol)


I would probably ground my child for the same length of time but I wouldn't go to the extremes that parents did!
My parents didn't punish me all that often. I was a ';good'; kid. I remember getting spanked when I lied when I was 7, and that is the worst punishment I ever received. I think it was well deserved and I didn't lie anymore.
The worst punishment I ever got was getting smacked on the bum with a wooden spoon, and yes I did deserve it, and yes it DID work, and yes I will discipline my children with physical punishment (To a certain extent of course) because In my personal opinion i belive that it is the most effective punishment.





And i grew up to be a ';Good Citizen'; hehe. So yeah .





Edit: Oh , I forgot the reason i got punished. It was because I was meant to be home at 5pm that evening for my grandmother's funeral. I got back at 7pm and i couldn't go. so i learnt my lesson.
When I was 4, I yelled at my mom to shut up and go away. She was so shocked she just stood there, but my dad heard and took a belt to me so bad I had welts. It was probably excessive, but I never talked back to her or him again. I won't use a belt on my kids but I have spanked them.
my parents kept me in the house from 7th grade to 11th grade and everytime i actually got to go out which i can count on one hand the always found something to be mad at me for and would be the crap outta me i just always thought that thats what you get for having a stepdad who actually has a son with your mom who never wanted you in the first place
I guess I never fully realized it until I saw your question and tried to remember; but unless I've somehow suppressed it, I can't recall ever having been punished by either of my parents.
When I was in high school my junior year, a few of us decided it would be fun to have a few beers before going to a school dance. Well, we got caught. My parents took away the phone, tv and everything for 3 weeks. Did I deserve it, yes...Did I learn from it..of course and now as an adult and look back I am thankful my parents cared about my well being enough to punish me. I hope eventually when I have children, I can be as admirable as my parents.
My mom grounded me for six month disconected my t.v. and took the door knob off my door.





I deserved a punishment but not that bad.


Nope.


Hay no.
My dad caught me drinking and smoking cigarettes one time, when he yelled at me and grounded me I told him that I was old enough to do what I wanted. After I picked myself up off the floor for disrespecting him and talking tim like that (which was deserved) he made me eat a pack of Kool Menthol cigarettes and drink some rott gut red wine. I got so sick that I didn't even look at a cigarette or a bottle of booze for a real long time. Yeah I think the punishment fit the crime, no I wouldn't do the same with my child, I don't drink or smoke anymore so my kid isn't being raised around it and fully knows the effects health wise if she did.
I never had any extreme punishments. I skipped school once when I was in the 9th grade. My neighbor saw me and I was so afraid that she would tell my parents that I beat her to it and told them myself! I think I got grounded for a week or two, but that was no phone. I could still watch TV. I was naturally hard on myself, so I'm not sure if their punishment was effective.





I do use restriction a lot with my children. They get the occasional slap on the bottom, but we mostly take things away from them as punishment.
i was 10....i had to lug wood to fill a 24' X 8' wood box by my self.....everyday after school for a week....because i didn't want to put my step-fathers change into his piggy bank for him and he accused me of stealling it....i never stold it i just left it and didn't put it in the bank....so no i didn't deserve it...even if i needed a punishment (all thought i don't think i should have) that was way to harsh.....i had a step-brother (same age) and sister (younder by 1 year) too....
I am 50 years old and I remember my mom beating me on my legs and back with a fire poker for not playing outside while she took a nap. Today I'm a successful business man with three grown boys that I only spanked a total of 5 times combined,in their whole life. Violence is one tradition that shouldn't be passed on thru the generations. Not really sure if I deserved it.It was such a daily ritual I no longer cared.I just expected and took it knowing that one day It would stop. I left home at 17 and joined the military. Year later, she acted as though we had a great time when I was young. I had the strength to forgive her and never looked back.
My dad locked me in the cellar for five days withonly sixteen raisens. I lived but i was weak, all for taking a banana before tea! AND I NEVER DID IT AGAIN!
