punishment for getting drunk?

Question by carfreak20072 Reward: 25 Pond Points + 10 Knowledge Tokens Status: Pending a resolution
Okay so here's the thing, I attended my godmother's Halloween party at the end of October and drank three whole bottles of beer while I was there. I am only 18 years old so I am not even suppose to be doing that yet, my Dad and his family are very dissapointed in me and so is my mother. My mother told me that I am not allowed to see my Dad for awhile but I don't think that that is punishment enough for me at all. What do you guys think woud work for me?

I find it interesting that you think you need to be punished. I see that this question is listed in the "Religion" category so I am working under the assumption that you are Christian. You should start by examining why you need to be punished for drinking. There is nothing I have ever read in the Bible that says drinking alcohol is a sin. If you got drunk and commited a sin I could perhaps understand your desire to be punished for it. But if you just got a little tipsy and aren't comfortable with having done so, just don't do it again.Then perhaps you need to examine why you decided to drink at all. You aren't old enough to drink and you must have known that your parents would be upset by it. You say you are 18 so it's time for you to start growing up and making better decisions in your life. God is all about forgiveness and learning from your mistakes so that you will become a better person. So learn from this mistake, ask for forgiveness if you feel you have done something wrong, then forgive yourself and make better decisions in the future. God loves you, so love yourself.

I think you need to sit down with your mother and just say to her look its not dads fault and your punishing him for what i have done and just ask her if you can work something else out like a grounding or a lose of an item that you love for a little while instead of just being pushed away from your farther cos its not fair on you or him to be seperated like that.

your punishment should be that you are NEVER allowed to drink alcohol again... and only You can dole out this punishment fairly...when anyone asks you, you can tell them you are punishing Yourself

I think you should explain to your parents. Do not do it again because our body is the temple of the holy spirit. We should take good care of our body. It's a gift from us to God that is why we should take good care of it. It's like a gift from a special friend that we should take good care of that gift,because it's coming from a special friend.

Something you should know is that no man was creat by man it is God who created us and he also created the ingredent of alcohol this is what i want to say to you and your mother as an 18 yrs old boy u are too young to take three bottles of alcohol ur destiny is in ur hand by doing that u are gradualy destroying ur destiny ok every body has his or her own destiny at hand ok so ur punishment is ur mother advice and forgivenes and after that u wil be set free ok as peple say if mothers does not correct their child for the wrong thing the child wil get spoiled ok
