I had never heard of a time out until about 10 yrs. ago. It didn't exist in my childhood. Ditto for grounding. Never happened to me. We had corporal punishment in school and I always knew I could expect a second helping when I got home and showed my folks the sign sheet for having gotten spanked in school. I made sure to never get spanked in school.

Once I got older, when my parents really wanted my attention, they took my guitar away for a week. No worse punishment in the world.
