With minor offenses such as rudeness, rough housing or messy rooms, I usually take Johnny right down to the basement and punish him on the spot. With more serious offenses such as coming home late without calling, I postpone his trip to the basement until after dinner. He also has another trip to the basement with me the next night. By waiting until after dinner and spreading his discipline out over two days, Johnny has plenty of time to think about what he did wrong and why he is being punished. I have all of these ‘little chats’ in the basement since it’s very quiet down there and we won’t be disturbed. On days when Johnny is due for a chat, he is grounded. I also remove his pants or shorts for the rest of the day since this gives him an extra reminder about what he did wrong and what is going to happen. And as I already said, I intend to handle you the same way as Johnny.
