Punishment agreement
A punishment agreement is an agreement in writing, possibly but not necessarily taking the form of a contract, that defines certain punishments that will be given for certain offenses. Punishments agreements are used in BDSM (e.g. domestic discipline, host/houseboy, host/housegirl) relationships as a document that ensures that both parties have a common understanding on the terms of the relationship, and the nature, extent and limits of possible punishments that will, or may, be given.
Simple example, just to convey the idea:
- Poor work - six of the best plus an extra chore
- Lying or rude language - mouth soaping followed by a bare-bottom hand-spanking
- Stealing - bare-bottom hand-spanking followed by a paddling, plus one or more removal of privileges
- Food related offense - no dessert or bed without supper
- Lacking cleanliness or hygiene - a good scrubbing with soap and cold water, followed by a hand-spanking on the wet bottom
- Vandalism - humiliation, spanking plus corner time
Punishment agreements can run for a specified period (e.g. a trial period of a week or a month), or indefinitely. If one of the parties finds that the agreement should be changed, e.g. made stricter or milder, or to add new offenses, this can be done anytime upon mutual agreement.
A punishment agreement is related but not identical to a slave contract which defines the terms of a (typically long-term) [[Master/slave relationship]].

Children are usually subjected to rules and consequences for breaking these without being given much of a chance to negotiate these terms with the authority figure. Typically only in formal, non-domestic scenarios such as schools, boarding schools, reformatories, training camps, Correctional boot camps etc. will the punishments be put down in a formal document. An exception is the If-Then Chart, which is more or less a document of such a kind too, but for use in semi-domestic scenarios such as kindergartens, preschools and home-schooling families.
