How were children punished for disrespect in 1800s?

In: Century - 1800s [Edit categories]

Answer:

A lot of the time children who committed crimes whether they were severe or not were whipped, hung, or stoned to death. Talking back/cursing at your parents usually resulted in the same punishment. I'm sure there may have been more punishments used though.
