#Dommes, The irony...... Negative punishment and its effects by UNICEF

I was flicking through the internet when I came across a serious document by UNICEF on punishment titled POSITIVE DISCIPLINE - Negative punishment and its effects. 
( BELOW IS THE FULL ARTICLE )

I absolutely understood why it was produced and how important it is for our children to experience a positive environment, positive reinforcement and positive discipline in schools and from their parents.

On the other hand, as I read through the examples of negative punishment I couldn't help smiling at the thought of My submissives.

How wonderful that We as Dommes can and do sometimes use Negative punishment. Here is some examples:

Forced acts that are physically painful or damaging (holding a weight for a long time, kneeling on stones, standing or sitting in a contorted position). CHECK!!

Confinement, being tied up or being forced to remain in one place for an extended period of time. CHECK!!


Verbal assaults, humiliation, ridicule and assaults on dignity, intended to reduce a child’s confidence, self esteem or dignity.

It is worth reading the full article with the submissive in mind....


And for those who see the total irony in it all, I have adapted the UNICEF leaflet and produced My own version.

Here it is: ( can download it here )

POSITIVE DISCIPLINE
Punishment 101 and its effects

FAVOURABLE AND WHOLESOME PUNISHMENT IN DUNGEONS

Discipline in dungeons can take the form of corporal (physical) or emotional punishment, carried out by Mistresses' and sometimes other dungeon staff, recognising that these are the correct means of disciplining, correcting, controlling, educating, or modifying the behaviour of a submissive.

It also includes acts carried out by another submissive who has been given (or assumed) authority or responsibility to inflict punishment on other submissives.

Discipline causes physical and psychological pain to the submissive on the receiving end, as well as other submissives who witness it. They can be inflicted as: (please tick if you have implemented / used each punishment)


Direct assaults (beating, hitting, slapping or whipping any part of a submissive's body), with or without an implement like a cane, stick or belt. CHECK!

Indirect assaults (pinching, twisting ears and joints, pulling hair, cutting and shaving hair, cutting or piercing skin, or dragging a submissive against his or her will). CHECK

CANED TODAY, DISCIPLINED FOR LIFE

Corporal and all forms of punishment have far-reaching effects on submissives:

Hitting a submissive teaches that violence is a solution to problems.  
HIT.

Shouting at a submissive teaches them they have to listen more carefully.
SHOUT.

Humiliating a submissive teaches them that they are lowly pigs. 
HUMILIATE.
