do you think a 2 and half hour detention deters bad behavour as well as properly punish the wrongdoer ?

on fridays we get let out of school early at 2pm its something that everyone looks forward to, sadly on fridays is my schools most harsh punishment those that have been bad or broke the rules are punished with a 2 and a half hour punishment, on tuesday i had a reguler detention but i couldnt be bothered to go so i went home instead, the next day i was told by my head of hear that on friday i will now have to serve a 2 and a half hour detention, today i had to get my parents to sign the detention slip which also gives us the work we have to do, i have to write a 4 page essay on why its wrong to skip detention, i then have to copy this out making a total of 8 pages, why is detention so harsh ?

    It's not an "improper" punishment and not harsh at all.

    I don't know what pleasure you get out of making up these ridiculous 'questions' but I think you might really need psychiatric help.  Or you could get a real hobby or try reading some good novels.

    You've asked these silly questions so many times, no-one is going to believe you any more.

    Sweetie, this punishment is no worse than the one you whined about last week.

    Find a hobby, like sewing, instead of trolling internet with your locked down fantasies, troll.
