I am having trouble getting into this one. Anyone with a hint?
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!

SOLUTION
The prompt said you would be looking for a suitable punishment for children who get out of line. Hidden in the three theme entries were three "children" - instances of the word KID - that were "out of line":
uniteDKIngdom
heiDIKlum
potlucKDInner
or
DKI
DIK
KDI
The letters directly _under_ each of these were as follows:
DKI
OGR
DIK
DNU
KDI
IGN
Treating the letters KID as indexes for the corresponding letters below, when you return them to the proper order you get:
KID
GRO
KID
UND
KID
ING
In order from top to bottom, the rearranged letters spell GROUNDING, our answer.
