Give someone a good yelling/shouting/beating

Hi

Are these natural expressions?

  1. Father gave me a good shouting today.
  2. Father gave me a good yelling today.
  3. Father gave me a good beating today.

Thanks,

Tom

This is very formal and old-fashioned. Generally, people would say dad instead.
