If your parents threatened to send you to school in your pyjamas, did they ever carry out the threat?

In boarding school I got picked on by a prefect who thought my slowness in getting up in the morning was down to laziness (it was because I trained hard for gymnastics and needed more sleep than most girls). One morning she made me go to registration in my pyjamas and slippers and explain to the teacher why I was dressed like that. Not much of a punishment when you are 8 years old and spending all day in your pyjamas seems the most awesome thing ever 🤣 The only downside was missing breakfast!

What an imaginative prefect!

@MartinII She was OK. Strict, but fair. And getting us all up in the morning and ready for school was like herding cats 🐱 She went on to become an army captain.

@SunshineGirl Good for her. I was a prefect once, but sadly only in a day school for boys!
