The punishment for lying to my mom was...

When I was a child, my mom was in charge of disipline because my dad was hardly there. My sister was her favorite and she hardly ever got punished, but I did a few times. My mom was nice but she got real upset if she caught us telling a lie. The last time I told her a lie I was 14. She always said that humiliation was the most effective punishment, she never hit us. I had to strip and stand in the corner for one hour. It was really embarresing for me once when my sister came home with a girlfriend. I learned not to lie, would like to know if anyone else ever had anything similar happen, and is this normal?

  • Well it is good you see it as inappropriate and degrading - it certainly was.

    As punishment, my dad would make me stand in the corner (facing the corner), but I didn't have to strip. My mom would instead spank me with a wooden spoon. I think my dad's punishment was more effective.

    Discipline should never be degrading. It may be 'effective' but at a cost. Children should be treated with dignity too. As someone who works with children, if I found out someone was doing this to their kid, I'd think I had grounds to report them for child abuse.

    Not normal at all but but sounds kinda like a fake story because it's so out there and I'd think you would know this is not normal. If you are telling truths than I'm sorry you had to endure such abuse. I hate lying and liars too but humiliation seems effective in your case. Lying is bad..making your 14 yr old son strip and for you to actually do it is not good or normal at all.

    Your mom sounds awesome. But that is a truly unhealthy thing to do to your child. Truly not normal. That's definitely grounds for years of therapy.

    I would've stripped and refused to put anything back on to show her who's boss. I nearly killed my mother once, but I'm way too smart to go through with it, so I just left her with cuts to the neck.

    (I'm joking about the very last part)

  • The story is true. When we were growing up, we were told that this was not unheard of, just that it was not usually talked about. Hence I never mentioned it to anyone except to two of my best friends. Yes I wanted to complain but, I obeyed her orders because she said so, and I feared of being given away. Although this all happened a long time ago, it"s not been until recently that I became to question it. I think of it as extreme too, but I grew up respecting honesty.

    My mum used to hit me with a wooden spoon too, I never had to strip off but I used to have to sit on a step or in a corner all day and eat my meals on the floor.
