Here we go. I got my ass beat with everything my Mom could swing. Belts, coathangars, EXTENSION CORDS!! I know I was the only kid ever to throw away my own HotWheels set because I kept getting beat with the tracks. I'm talking brutal beatings - not just one swat. Beatings that would send a parent to prison for double digits. I'm in my 40s and have a 9yo and a 2yo and they're disciplined by my wife, occasionally I have to be the bad guy and yell for a minute and threaten to throw away the playstation. My mom once commented on how I was being 'a little rough" and I suggested I beat them like she beat me. She said I deserved it. I said "Bye now. Have a nice day". At age 13 I violated the terms of my 'restriction' and was found playing basketball at the school one day when mom came home early. She had a broomstick and kept snarling for me to get inside the house through clenched teeth. Said she was going to count to 3. I said count to ten - I dont care, you aint beating me no more. She told me to pack my shit. I did and couch surfed for 6 months with friends and family. I WAS 13!!! I've had issues with my violent Mom and my alcoholic Dad all my life. Drugs, prison, unemployment - whatever bad shit life could throw my way I just figured it was my fate for being born into the family...

The lady I married never ever got a spanking in her whole life and I was shocked to find out some people actually grew up like that. My kids are well behaved - very bright and intelligent kids who will never know the pain I knew and I'm very thankful for that. But one of these days that playstation is going in the trash!

I was given paddlings, corner time, and time outs. I was mortified at the time but now I know it was absolutely necessary and gave me the attitude adjustment I desperately needed.
Mom
Step-Brother
Dad
Henry (step-dad)
I live with my mom, brother, and Henry, and see my dad every now and then. Henry was a teacher at my school when my mom met him and he was actually my math teacher the year he and mom got married! He respects me and knows I'm "the bad-girl type". As for my stepbrother, Sam...well I hear them fighting alot. My mom got me a mini-fridge to make up for the headaches I get from it!
Usually Sam just wants to be rude and talk back, well Henry will NOT hear of it. Sam winds up in his room, and about fourty five minutes later, I hear a belt, paddle, switch, shoe, riding whip (I'm an equestrian of 9 years), and Sam has mentioned a wet rag or wooden spoon.
San really! I'm a very good person. Usually...I'm a mostly A student, captian of the Girls' Cross Country team. Riding. A wonderful BF (Sam's best friend), Garner. And Sam isn't too bad either...he has a nice-ish GF, Amy. Decent grades (little dork could be GOld Eagle like me if he'd review MY notes from 7th grade!) ...so, yes. spanking is both good and bad.

SWITCHES

BELTS
YOU NAME IT, NOW DO NOT GET ME WRONG MY MOM DID NOT ABUSE JUST WHIP MY ASS WHEN I WAS OUT OF LINE.
a) a paddle
b) a fly swatter
c) a hand
d) a belt
e) a tree branch
The only thing I ever used on my children was my hand - and then only on the butt and only hard enough to get their attention.
-
It worked for me.
it.I only got "thrashed"once age 11 with a switch.Yes i deserved it.
It was humiliating being spanked in front of people, but it was just what everyone got then.
I have never spanked our children,but my wife(who herself was spanked as a child)does,but not with an implement.But unlike when we were growing up
its a rarity.
I have just seen this link and i cant believe how many poeple there are with similar experiences from the 60s and 70s,Many sadlymuch much worse than my wife or i got.We dont consider our spanking as abuse.
I got another spanking with the belt when I was 13, when I stole a candy bar from the grocery store. My father was furious because I had money in my pocket. My father gave me a choice to get grounded for 2 weeks, no TV, no friends, no phone... or a spanking with the belt... 2 swipes across the butt. I took the spanking. I have never felt that I was abused.
I don't beat,I spank.
