I Had To Write The Same Sentence Over And Over As Punishment

Another helpful addition for the girl might be to have her copy only those entries where the phone number ends with a certain sequence of digits, such as "67". In this way the girl has to concentrate all the time on her work.

Another important option would be to have her learn the first ten pages of her excerpt by heart. After a given number of hours the culprit would be obliged to stand straight, and she should start reciting every entry in the first ten pages of the book. She could also be asked to give the name that is associated with a certain phone number, or the number to a given name . This would be a wonderful little exercise that would help the girl to get a deep insight into what discipline really implies.

@helenS I used these ideas a few days ago on my daughter and they worked wonderfully. I had her copy 25 pages, odd digits in black, even digits in red.

It took a rather long time for her to do, and a very long time for me to check for accuracy

@Valory: Taking your conduct into account, it appears your Mom has been [i]extremely[/i] successful in showing you how to behave, and her methods (even though/because they were painful at times) have made you a very pleasant young woman. Not only did she teach you obedience and patience but also good manners. Not all young women have been that lucky during their formative years. Looking forward to hearing more from you.

@Valory: poor you..big ugs as always

@AGirlNamedKim: Thank you Kim, big hug for you to.

yeah, you don't forget immediately its true

@AGirlNamedKim: Yes the most significant part of a spanking occurs [i]after[/i] the spanking. That's the time we learn our lesson Kim.

@helenS: Truer words have never been spoken and it is something anti-spankers don't get. Spankings (uniquely of all childhood punishments --for example writing lines does not) often create a learning opportunity where none was possible before where the moral reason of the child has an opportunity to grow. Here is an example from my Mom experience:https://similarworlds.com/7565041-I-Am-a-Mother/609752-A-while-back-I-was-on-a-road-trip-with-my-sister-m

@GoodoldBob I agree on that part. It's an effective punishment, but I just hate it so much

@CassiePatriot In a way, most kids would prefer almost anything else because most forms of discipline are passive - no internet, corner time, spankings, etc - they are not required to do anything except wait for it to be over.

It's the fact that they are made to actively do something

What is your reasoning for asserting that kids being spanked are not active but instead are passive?

Even if they don't resist and let it happen, just doing that involves action big time and will power and ... Getting a spanking is a major cooperative and active event, however it goes down.

No they did it out of love

@helenS So you support the concept? Just asking.

@SW-User It's less painful than other lessons.

@helenS True... I guess that depends. Sometimes learning the moral of the story in an embarrassing fashion... lasts a long time. The writing o the board works for sure.. but from a different angle.

I was required that too, I just took one color and wrote that word over and over again, and then take the second color and right that over and over lol
