Punishment from father -- my net's broken (7)
I believe the answer is:
payment
'punishment' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'father my net's broken' is the wordplay.
'father' becomes 'pa' (pa is a kind of father).
'broken' indicates an anagram.
'my'+'net'='mynet'
'mynet' is an anagram of 'yment'.
'pa'+'yment'='PAYMENT'
'from' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for payment that I've seen before include "Punishment" , "Remuneration - outlay" , "Sum of money handed over" , "Sum given for something" , "Discharge of debt" .)
