What's the worst punishment you ever received as a child?

I told my stepdad, no once when he asked me to take out the trash. I wasn't feeling good and said No I can't. Well my stepdad made me stand in the corner gave me two buckets filled with water and put a phone book on my head, one of those thick yellow ones. Told me if I spilled any water or the phonebook I would live to regret it. I had to stand there for an hour.

I didn't even make it 30 minutes before my hands gave out and my arms gave out I dropped one bucket of water. He took me and bent me over hit me with his leather belt he kept soaked in a bucket of water just for the purpose of hitting me with it and knowing wet leather made it worse.

Gave me 10 lashings across my butt and legs with it. Then made me sit for 3 days straight no food or water and write on paper nonstop for the entire 3 days that I was sorry for telling him No I would not take out the trash.
