what sort of punishments you’ve got as a child or may be as a teenager…???
which were the most effective ones…???
any punishment that had the worst ever negative impact…???
as for me …the only time i was punished without being at fault is always fresh in memory…i had an arguement with younger sis ,…n ammi stopped talking to me …!!!(it still makes me cry)
As a child - Nani Amman will stop loving you if you don't behave properly etc or Nana Abba will slap you if you don't stop AT THE MOMENT!
As a teenager - Well, nothing really. But seeing my mother/sister in tears always ashamed me a little.
As for worst negative impact: Well, all the beatings I ever got during childhood.
My parents never beat me as part of a punishment. My mom says she did once hit me, but she ended up crying more than I did.
I don't remember this myself, but I used to be really scared of the dark. So, to get rid of my fear, my mom once locked me up in the storage room, and once made me stand in the backyard at night. :( It only made my fear worse. I'm still scared of looking out the window at night, being alone in the dark, heck..even being alone at home at night.
being grounded...not being allowed to play cricket...parents used to stop talking to me...emotional blackmail...i seldom got beatings and when they happened they were justified ...but personally i was ok with beating...its just the emotional black mailing and not talking that sucked..i used to hate these forms of punishments
As a kid my bro made me write sentences. And my parents didn't really punish much except give lectures.
But I have nieces that are young kids and one time my niece got on my nerves so I stopped talking to her and if I wanted to tell her something I would tell her sister when she was standing in front of me. And she would hear me say that to her sister and after a day she felt bad and said sorry to me. So ignoring her worked. I actually almost started laughing every time I would ignore her cuz I just thought it was a stupid way to punish her....but it worked. And I would be telling her stuff indirectly.
Wow. My parents did slap me as punishment as a child, but they would never ever do something like punish me through preying on my fears. I’d rather take 100 slaps than go through something like emotional punishment like that.
The worst punishment I ever got was at 13/14, when my mother found out that i had been telling her I was praying when in fact I had not been. Until then, she’d always considered me to be the trustworthy son. I was expecting to be on the receiving end of a slapfest, but what i got was much worse.
She just broke down in tears. Then I tried to hug her, and she would have any of it, she just ran to her room and locked herself in and all I could hear for a while was her crying.
usually when ur young, u fear the slaps adn anger more…but as i’ve gotten older and more mature, i realized i’ll still take the screaming and gaaliyan (no slaps though) over the tears and sadness ..
Zabardast sa thappar parta tha. I used to see little birdies flying around my head. Magar uska asar koi nahi hota tha. I think I was a tough little girl
ham behn bhaiyon ko ammi se boht pitayaan pari haen
but my dad only hit me twice or thrice as far as i remember and that was when i was really young and had dont some REALLY BAD things and papa ne boht zaada maara tha meri takreeban saansein uR gayi theen and then he made me write “i will never do this again” 100 times in my diary too
mummy toh abhee bhee ghussay mein aayein toh chapayr laga deyn mummy ka ghussa boht tez hay
but papa ne bachpan ke baad muj pe haath nai uthaya kabhee
waise i dont believe in hitting kids at all. i dont think hitting is a good way to discipline kids.
TNW hmm aik dafa jo kya tha woh toh mein kisi ko naheen bata sakti… :o aur doosri dafa umm papa se jhoot bol k doston k saath outing pe gai thee (when i was around 8/9)
Afia baji yes maaoN ko sakhti nai karni chahiyeh bachon ke saath lekin then again, i think its only coz of my mom’s sakhti and strict discipline that we turned out to be good students and generally obedient so i guess its a double edged sword
