What punishment for two young boys who have…

… just taken marker pens to the walls of their bedroom and absolutely covered the place in pen? 2 & 4yr old.

a paintbrush and tin of paint to put it right again

ditto restless

waterboarding

I suspect it was more the fault of the 4 year old who should have stopped the little one as well.

Anyway, I would think that no TV for a week would be a start and then make them clean it off next weekend somehow unless that will be a lot fo fun for them.

Otherwise make them sleep in the shed for a week 😈

2 mins and 4 mins on the Naughty Step ? Carefully explaining what they have done wrong. Then and apology (from them) and a hug (from you). Thats what Super Nanny would do. Doesn’t work on cats.

Pen to the face in a style imitating the original artwork? Think of it as an homage. 😉

I blame the parents, fancy leaving such temptation lying around 😉

hels – nice idea, but it doesnt work on kids either.

The Cane!

Nah just kidding – take a pic to remind them in 30 yrs time lol

And get them to paint the room lol

Just be careful when they borrow your car and credit card when they head out to B&Q.

I got 1 month of no tv for something similar when i was a bit older. Its not just the TV, its missing out on what everyone else was doing that made it stick in my mind… I was a bit bigger than 2 though!

Aha !! I have wondered, all my parenting knowledge is based on that show. Luckily I only have the cat to practice on.

When we were naughty as kids my sis and I got the wooden spoon. Well she did, I was never naughty. I think the threat was enough.

A kick in the arse.

Report them to the Moderator works for us older children .

Could be worse… 😀

I’d just leave their room like that for a few months to admire their art work.

Flailing them hourly until bedtime

Ring the papers and tell them you think Bansky broke in…

Then sell the walls to a collector.

I blame the parents

+1. Yet another example of Broken Britain…. 🙁

Pacemaker; please tell me those’r your kids!!!!! 😆

Painted the telly and everything! Is that gloss? Please tell me it is…

Baby’s got a painted head and everything. Brilliant. 😆

32:14 round Inners?

More worrying is the need to post this on STW ;-(

Phone social services and have them adopted

Buy a JML Magic Sponge, iy will probably get it all off – unless you have wallpaper on the walls!

Wee in their shoes, clearly.

Do you have a set of Bombers to hand?

Beat them to death.
Then make them get up 2hours before you send them down t’pit
to lick the road clean with thier toungs..

No there not mine, but i have identical twin boys who helped decorate there room one night while we were asleep, luckily the carpet was up as they had got the lid off the tin of paint and the footprints led back to there beds. 👿

OP, if the wall/ doors are any sort of glossy surface, try colouring over pen with dry wipe marker, then wiping it.

We used to get graffiti of vending machines by doing that. 😀

none whatsoever! they’re kids i think it’s great.

Whats’s this? Sensible, helpful advice??? 😯

Somebody have a word, please…

I had a habit when I was around 6 of doodling on the walls
my ultimate punishment, after a few bollockings, was to have my pens confiscated
it worked

thumbscrews.

POst a pick here for everyone else’s amusement:

get them to pose there with markers…. film a slow walk up to the room with a camcorder then the reveal… ideally have the younger one with a second pen up their nose or something.

send into YBF, earn 250 english pounds. return the kids to their rightful owners and demand your money back. a profitable day 😀

Pens are in the bin, no TV for a week and I might let them off the naughty step some time in 2018.

I was starting to wonder how this was playing out… “OH YOU KIDS ARE IN SO MUCH TROUBLE! You just stay there for 2 hours til I ask the internet exactly how much trouble you’re in!” <2 hours passes> OK, the internet has voted you a savage beating. Don’t blame me, I’m just the messenger”

Most likely as above the 2yr old was led by the 4yr old , what is their favourite thing ? story time / cuddly toy / choccy biscuit . something they would miss if deprived of for a 24 hour period.

In our house the ultimate punishment is no story time before bed , we’ve only needed to carry this out as a punishment about 4 times but it really snaps him round every time (and leaves me and mum feeling awful).

Get a pen and have some fun yourself. Opportunity rather than disaster 😀

I drew a campfire on my wall when I was about that age with crayons. Can’t remember what my punishment was. I’ll ask my folks at Xmas

Piss in their shoes! You’ll get a fair few pairs done as well, what with the small size!
