Advantages: stop child
Disadvantages: unhappyness
Now this is an area I can speak with experience. Earlier in my childhood, I wasn’t exactly the most behaved kid. I was always getting myself in some sort of trouble, at home from my dad hearing me swear or at school for doing virtually every thing I did.
By the time I was ten I had received basically every type of punishment and discipline possible and trust me hardly any of the worked, they didn’t exactly do much and they were over pretty quick. The worst thing, which my dad used to do was to smack me on the thigh. You may think that that is hardly anything, but when he did, he wasn’t really in control with him self. He never did it more than once at a time, but when he did he did it so hard, he left me with a raised, red hand mark, which only started to go after about three hours. This wasn’t the best means of control and didn’t make me not do what ever I had done again, but just made me so made with him that I just wanted to do it again, just to piss him off.
Simply telling me what to do didn’t really work either because I only sometimes listened.
The worst means of discipline is manual labour. The only time I got this was from messing about at school. This didn’t work at all because this girl and I had to carry up hurdles from the athletics pitch and take them to the pavilion and then paint them. Instead of this be got board and stuck our hands in the white paint and started making hand prints and throwing a ball to each other. From this we just got more punishments.
Getting grounded is just annoying and isn’t that bad as to make you not commit the same offence again.
You may think I’m spoilt or something like but I think that bribery works very well. This stops you doing the thing you did wrong in the first place. For instance if you are good for a whole week or something like that my mum would give me one pound or something nice.
Hope its u
seful.
