They used to take a wooden ruler and make us hit our opposite hand with it over and over and they would be saying "louder," "louder," as it hit our skin. They never touched us!!!! They would make the boys bend over and hold their ankles while they used a wooden paddle on their rear ends. Wonderful childhood school memories, eh? But you know what, we didn't fidget, we didn't talk back, and we sure as heck learned a lot because we knew better than to disobey.
