Nataly 38 #26 April 23, 2013 Quote I know this will be surprising, but I never really got in trouble beyond, "quit bothering your brothers!". My Dad is a Marine, I was too afraid to get in trouble! Same here... I happened to do well in school, and as long as I had good grades, no one really paid attention to what I was doing. As for my siblings, it was like Lisa said: the punishment fit the crime... My sister punched a hole in the wall... She was then made to fill in the hole and repaint the wall. My brother watched TV instead of doing his homework - TV was taken away and put up in the attic. We didn't like the food that mom or dad cooked for us - we didn't have to eat it (but then we wouldn't be offered any substitute)... Et cetera, et cetera."There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
