Very cute. Same thing that was used on me . . . and it worked. Guess what? It didn’t work for my step son. I came dangerously close to child abuse using the same method but it did not — would not — work with him. It was not within his power to stop bad behavior no matter how much you beat him with a belt.

Wait. I shouldn’t say that. I never did break his bones or really, really beat the crap out of him, you know, where he could walk or go to school or anything. Maybe I should have done that.

I feel that if a healthy bare-handed spank won't fix it then something more dramatic won't either.

P.S. Be careful what you post on the Internet. It can be used against you.

I told you my experiences as a kid. I cannot speak for the rest of the world.

My Dad put the fear of God into us by his voice. If that didn’t work, it was by his hand.

Thats the way I was raised and it worked for us. I didn’t live with others, so I have no idea what worked with others. All I can say is what worked for us.
