Eww! It probably tastes disgusting and if they swallow it they can get poisoned.

Hey!!! What kind of punishment is THAT? I'm a kid and if my mom EVER did that to me, I would never forgive her!!! Bad idea, in my opinion
Added 4 months ago by guest, 1 point
Yeah! What if they swallow it? I don't like that.
Added 7 months ago by guest, -2 points

Nose Against A Wall For 1 Hour
You get really if you make stand up for a hour and if their nose leaves the wall they have to another hour!!!!!!!!!

That might hurt and the person can put their nose sideways on the wall and do something fun.

Hey I'm a kid!
Added 4 months ago by guest, 4 points
I totally disagree with you sorry but that's a bit too harsh for kids...
Added 4 months ago by guest, -1 points
one hour is way too long for any child at any developmental age. Experts say 5-10 minutes is sufficient for children under 10. If older they can spend time in their room. Nose against wall for 1 hour is absurd.

That would hurt!

I really think that would hurt and they would not be happy

i don't want my child to have a flat nose. a spanking sounds a lot better!
Added 1 year ago by guest, -5 points
I am a child and Dad says I can't go to one of my BFF's parties. I am balling my eyes out and I want to replacce that punishment with one of the worst ones here. PLZ!!! I need to change his mind, I am willing to do anything!

"well how am i goin to contact my parents in a emergency or call the cops in a emergency OMG are you trying to kill us kids!" Oh please- whenever you might go, someone will have a cell phone or landline you can use.
Added 3 months ago by McHobbit, 3 points
When I was young we didn't have cell phone. Guess u could learn how to use someone else's like we used. Cell phones don't keep you safe. Listening to your parents does!

My art teacher made the class do this, but since I was feeling a bit rebellious (and I wanted to finish my art project) I didn't! My friends told me I had to put my head down and I didn't listen to them. My art teacher didn't care and even winked at me. I think I was his favorite student. :)

I'm in my room and its really fun
Added 2 months ago by guest, 1 point
Even if they don't have a TV, computer, video game whatever all kids have something "fun" in their room. Even if it's just stuffed animals on their bed. My mother stopped sending me to my room when she realized that I just went ahead and read books.
Added 3 months ago by McHobbit, 5 points
If you were rich, or have a spare room in your house, you could make it a dull room with nothing but a simple mattress, like one to put under a sleeping bag, a metal hard uncomertable chair and send the to that room. And they can think about what they've done
Added 6 months ago by guest, -3 points
agreed its like thanks for sending me to my room with my phone computer ipod books tv video games guitars and other stuff to do!

I don't think it's all that harsh. Depending on what the child did, it takes something like this. Growing up, this ALONG with "no friends" was a commonplace punishment.

This does NOT work once kids are old enough to realize that you didn't travel for 5 hours and pay for a hotel to turn back around again!

move a giant dirt pile from one place to another in summer
if the kid is a teen this is most efficient. it teaches the child that things could be worse than getting grounded or getting electronics taken away.

That is fun and I can jump into the dirt and find bugs to play with too and cool off in the dirt.

What does this teach your child? It does not teach them how things are in real life. When was the last time you had to move a giant pile of dirt because you broke the law or did something unethical?

Added 1 month ago by guest, 0 points
Writing a 25-page essay is nothing! Well...for me, at least. I'm twelve years old, I'm writing a novel that has 130 pages so far for the first manuscript. Writing a 25-page essay is good practice.
My parents would never use this punishment on me, though, because they know I love writing more than anything!
