Washing a boy's mouth out with soap (or "Mouth Soaping") can be a very effective punishment that should be considered for naughty little adult boys that use grown up language, smart-off to you, or otherwise use prohibited words when they misbehave, act in ways that are unacceptable, or otherwise disobey your authority. This is particularly helpful for open defiance. When you hear, "NO! I WON'T!" Then you know it's probably time to take your boy's ear between fore and thumb, and grab a bar of the Lux soap.
1. Pull your boy by the ear over to the sink.
2. Make him unwrap the soap and pass it to you.
3. Wet the soap and make sure there is
a nice lather on it.
Make sure the boy watches as you do this.
4. Make him stick out his tongue and
open his mouth as wide as it will go.
(If he does not do this, deliver some hard swats
to his bottom, or hold his nose as you see here.)
5. If you prefer, consider using a washcloth
covered in the soap to wash the boy's mouth out.
The key is to stay calm yourself, incorporate humiliation into your boy's punishment, and clearly explain how this can be avoided in the future.
6. Stick the bar of soap in the boy's mouth, and tell him to bite down.
7. Spank your naughty boy on the bare bottom, until you are absolutely sure he has learnt his lesson.
During the punishment make sure to provide the boy with clear instructions:
"Open wide."
“Stick your tongue out."
“Wider, boy!"
He will be reluctant, naturally, but remember that you are the Daddy, and you must take control.
As effective as Spankings can be, nonSpanking Punishments can make a real difference in your Domestic Discipline lives. Try this one out this week/month and see if it makes a difference for you and your boy.
So many folks think this is just for when a boy uses bad language. In our home, the use of the word "NO!" in a disrepectful manner to direct instruction from Daddy can be the entree to an afternoon or evening visit to the soapdish. Soap can help eliminate open defiance from boys you take care of. No foul language required!
