My mom did that to me when I was a kid. She asked my sister to get something and the hall leading to her bedroom was dark. I started chanting Vampire things like, “feed me now” and “the dead walks in dark places” something along those lines. Well my mom said to me, “Now you go, alone”. I was scared as hell. Never did that again cuz I was a punk when it came to scary movies. So Michael, welcome to my world at 10yrs old.
It’s nice to see some punishment given for a change that doesn’t involve spanking.A non-spanking punishment idea could be for John to shave Michael’s head.Then again, that would not be too punitive as it would have made Michael look more like a normal kid instead of that infamous “premature balding” look.
Canada does not have Marines. James served in the Canadian Air Force. There was a story arc where Michael came home from college scruffy and long-haired, which did not go well with his mother. Given that outlook, Elly probably would be fine with it if Michael had gone to a military academy and got a buzzcut.

I agree. Good solution. Sleep bite, I mean, tight, Michael.

So where’s Grandpa? He did it. Why isn’t he helping fix it?

Grandpa hurt his foot when he put it through the ceiling.

Michael’s piggish attitude is starting to catch up to him.

Say “HI” to the Boogie Men for me, Michael.

Perfect punishment. Perhaps Michael will learn to curb his attitude – or at least hide it from his parents.

When I was little, my bed was under the attic access door. Sometimes I would get scared something was going to come down from there. :(
