Punishment
From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Punishment is when something is done to a person (or animal) that they do not like, because they broke a rule. There are many kinds of punishment, from a slap or taking away a toy (things that parents may do to punish children) to the death penalty for very bad crimes. You are most likely to be punished when you break the law or a rule. It can be a law or rule of a school or one where you are not allowed to park your car in a certain place.
