we were generally sent to our rooms and weren't allowed back until we were ready to apologise. worked brilliantly for my sister who hates being alone - she always apologised within minutes. i, however, am fairly solitary and loved being on my own. 3 hrs later my parents would suddenly remember me and find me generally reading or drawing in my room. either that or i had sneaked out and was roaming the fields or down by the river....
dad hit me once. i don't remember what i did, but i do remember the shock of being hit.
