Oh, you're guilty. Yesterday you went to bed at a bad time and your caregiver said he would punish you. No, this is not a cruel punishment at all. usually it's a time-out, a short essay, or a very light slap on the ass. The caregiver said he would give you a punishment before going to bed.. So, you're ready for bed now. The caregiver comes into the bedroom and sits down next to you, smiling kindly. "Do you remember what we agreed on, little one?"
