My mother hated bad language and sass, but she didn't believe in mouth soapings. Inspired by the Improv group Comedy Sportz, she created a "potty mouth" penalty in our house. When one of my sisters or I used bad language or said something disrespectful, etc. Mom would make us wear the brown paper grocery bag over our head for ten minutes. It was kind of like a portable "timeout." It was kind of embarrassing, especially when we got "bagged" with company or friends over. Has anyone had a similar experience of being punished with a paper bag?

That's a good idea and I think I'll use it. My nephew who I frequently watch has a potty mouth. I tried telling him that you use that language only in the bathroom but doesn't work so I'll try the paperbag next though he'd probably like that.

I would have been LUCKY to have a paper bag over my head!! I had soap(Dawn dish soap), slapped in the face with hand and belt. Had cotton stuffed in my mouth, and so on. Consider yourself LUCKY really

No but I had a few women i made put a bag over their head when we had sex cause they were ugly in the morning. Just can't figure it out. I never went to bed with an ugly girl, but sure woke up in the morning with a few.

Nope, can't say I did.
But then, I wasn't foul mouthed or rude around my mother, either.
Serves you right.
