My 9 year old went "missing" for almost 3 hours; which kind of "punishment" should I devise? |
This morning my 9 year ole son went for a bike ride; he usually turns up after about 25 minutes, but not today. When he hadn't come home after 1陆 hours, my husband took the route they usually go by, but didn't find him. By now, near frantic, I tossed my 5 yr old into the car and started criss-crossing the streets to look for him. When I had checked all the usual spots, I turned the car around, came home and let my husband continue the search. 45 minutes later he called me to tell that he had found him - alive and well, but almost 10 km away. He had remembered a long trip we all made well over a year ago, and had decided to retrace it. How do I mete out the punishment if any? Wow. That's a tough one. I remember when my brother was young, we had all gone into the city, and my brother wandered off and decided to walk home. My parents gave him a long talking-to, asking him why he did it, explaining why they were so worried, and why they got angry when they did find him. Then they asked him to write something creative about what he had done, why it was a mistake, why Mom and Dad were worried, and what he would do next time. You need to somehow get him to think about the sequence of events that led to him doing it, and get him to be aware of any moment when he questioned what he was doing, or should have done so. Remember to be absolutely clear about the dangers of a 9-year old being out for so long and so far away from parents. ground him for 3 weeks, and make him do chores broomstick sodomy this way he can see what can happen if he runs into a pediphile stick yourself in your room for an hour for not watching him more properly he's only 9 he shouldn't be biking off alone punishment sucks, but i say get a nice big dessert (one he'd really like), something so sweet and awesome, and when she sees it, tell her she cant have any of it, and eat it all. that would kill me but i dont think he deserves that much of sadness, just explain to him u were worried Ground her one day for every hour she was gone...but don't make her sit in her room...make her clean things so she learns her lesson. |
