　　When we are little we do all kinds of foolish things，sometimes unwillingly and sometimes premeditated(有预谋的)．And parents' next behaviour is to punish us and make sure that we won't repeat that nonsense(愚蠢的行为)again.

　　Therefore，at an early age parents punish their children as follows：firstly，they don't allow children to watch TV for a couple of days；secondly，parents don't permit their children to go out and play with their friends；thirdly，children are given different tasks to do-they have to write something several times or they have to stay in the corner of the room，until parents decide to"free"them.

　　Moreover，when in their adolescence(青春期)，children can receive other types of punishments.Most parents punish children by not giving them pocket money，which is the best form of punishment for them.Then，they forbid children to go out in weekends or return home after a certain hour.Not to forget the fact that parents also refuse to give them food，which means that children have to prepare meals alone as they have no other choice.

　　Sometimes，these forms of punishments have positive results and children won't repeat the bad things they have done.Anyway，if a child is used to doing nonsense things then all his or her parents' punishments will be of no importance to him or her.He or she will carry out the punishment and after a short period of time will commit another one.

　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇议论文。父母往往通过各种形式的惩罚来对待犯错的孩子，以便他们不再做愚蠢的事情。有时候这些惩罚可以奏效，但是对于习惯于犯错的孩子，这些惩罚只是权宜之计。
