I think its a good punishment. And it seems it worked. Its a gamble, but I see too many parents do nothing when thier kid misbehaves constantly. I'd never think to do some of the things I see kids do..
My parents never hit me, never yelled at me.. It was the idea that they would be disapointed in me that carried the weight and kept me from misbehaving.
