Same here. Nothing even close to what I got. I always hold back (even if I don't want to).

My mom had a plastic paint stirrer. Looked exactly like this one except it was brown. When she got you bare bottomed with it, you knew it.

Where is that line? Blood? Bruises?


I never got either, but I sure as hell got some welts. Different times I guess.

I deserved EVERY one I got. My parents didn't beat me, they disciplined me.

I got switched if I wasn't in bed by the time my dad was in bed but it never happened. It may sound strange but I simply didn't have the option to misbehave. It was simply a fact of life that I would do whatever I was told immediately no questions asked. I had to answer within 2 seconds and appear before my parents (running from the other side of the house) within 5-6 seconds. Not doing it was not an option. I was told not long ago that if I behaved like other kids, they would seriously have considered about putting me up for adoption.

I also had my nose covered up if I was breathing through my nose while i was sleeping as a practical joke and I got tickled till I was screaming and hyperventalating a few times.

When I got into high school, I got punched and slapped pretty badly a few times and I had stuff thrown point blank into my face twice. Still better than the verbal abuse I got at times from my mother which was honestly much much much worse.

I was spanked as a child. It worked well. I don't have any weird psychological issues and I don't have a propensity for violence.

Fly flap just does not have the weight of the sole of a woman's shoe. Plus you have the embarrassment and speed of getting whacked in a public place like the local Piggly Wiggly.

Yes sir. Got my fair share and feel no need to do violence or any other shite that these fools claim a spanking will do.

I did...but not often...I preferred a good arse whipping to a long drawn out talk about how I was screwing up my future (I did) and impugning the family name (as if it weren't already pretty well trashed before I came along).

I have spanked one of my kids and realized it did nothing but made me feel better....and taught the kid that if your bigger and stronger you can force your will on those who are smaller and weaker. Spanking a child is the easiest form of discipline and in my experience the least effective...in fact done often enough it is counter to its desired goal....whip a kid often enough and he will eventually get to the point where it means nothing. Spanking is more gratifying to the parent than it is beneficial to the child.....most of you will deny that but you are lying to yourself if there is not some pleasure in swatting the fanny of a misbehaving young'un who immediately straightens their shite up...

I got smacked around. Am a father of two now and will never deal with my kids in that manner. Doesn't accomplish anything. Only creates fear and resentment. I really have no interest in my kids cowering in my presence.

Out of curiosity, how do you discipline your children?

I spanked my son wih a bolo paddle. made a loud nise but didn't really hurt. My daughter? RARELY spanked her. If I looked at her hard she melted. We would ground her, typically.

Yes, although the screaming, threats of violence and the emotional violence were much worse than the whippings I got.

So all the misfit toys have getting beaten by their parents in common.

Beating children is sad. Planning the beatings of an unborn child is sickening. Please get help now.

Go 'Canes.



I have always been amazed at the nolstagic waxing a bunch of men will do when this subject is brought up. The only way that this subject could conjur up the warm remembrances of childhood that it does among so many adults is if those childhoods were barren of parental notice at all except when it came time to physically attack the child for mis-behaving. Add some alcohol to the mix and you will have otherwise hardened men almost on the brink of tears when they reminensce about Mama and her belt....it is realy interesting...

Why do people hit dogs with rolled up newspapers but children with sticks and belts?


Because dogs are dumb animals and don't understand?

How were you disciplined? I personally don't like the belt. That's what I got, and it didn't hurt me, but I never used it on my kids. I got them with a bolo paddle. A lot of noise and very little pain, actually. A little sting, maybe.

However, when I saw it was not effective with my son I found something that was. Extra chores, grounded, stuff like that. But if a kid tries to stick his fingers in a light socket I see nothing wrong with giving them a swat on the behind or hand.

I am not saying my way is the right or wrong way. I know it worked with my kids and I had VERY little trouble from either of them.

How were you disciplined....and if you have children, how did/do you discipline them? What did you fid most effective?
