LOL! I broke enough spoons that I went to a piece of survey lath about 18” long. makes a nice smacking sound. Daughter in law uses a bamboo spoon. No breakee. :o)

I grew up across the street from an old country doctor. His wife kept order on her side of the street with a wooden spoon. A shot to the kneecap was her favorite.

Mr Henske made Mommas spoons to order. I think I still have one buried in the yard here for fear she would come back.

Now our grammar school principle had Mr Henske take a baseball bat and sand it down to about 3/8 of an inch thick. and when Mr Keefer got mad mad he would drag you off to his office by your ear, close the door and Kapow! Kapow! Kapow!

I don't know of one kid that told his parents for fear of more of the same at home...
