One time I knew my mom was going to belt my butt so i stuffed a towel down there and pretended to cry when she hit me, ehehehe.

When I remarried, my new wife and I both had 6 year old girls. The girls did the typical jumping on the bed thing that most kids do, but caused the slats to shift and everything fell to the floor.
I went upstairs and put the bed back together, making them help. Then I told them I’d be back in 10 minutes to give them both a spanking.
When I went back upstairs and told them to lean over the bed, it was obvious they both had grabbed things from their clothes drawers and stuffed them into the seats of their pants. I alternated between them in giving 5 open handed swats on their padded butts. They would yelp each time, but I could tell they were trying real hard to stop from giggling out loud. ...I let them think they fooled me. They did get the message, though, and I never had to spank them again.
Well I had boys and admittedly it was more than once they were spanked....but rare just the same. The older they got that wasn't even an option because grounding them and taking privileges worked very well. One family I read about grounded their teenagers in the bathroom rather than their room where they would simply occupy themselves with their favorite things....the bathroom was perfect...!!!
