                    What kind of punishment did you receive as a child?


          My grandmother  would  cut a switch off the tree to spank me.

    My father didn't need a switch.He had hands as big as dinner plates & he didn't hold back.

    My parents never wasted soap when they had fly swatters, tennis shoes, belts, and branches from a fruitless mulberry with which to beat us.

    Bob/PKB

    I will drive my Santa Fe to Ducky and fly to Scotland

    No soap but many spankings. They were very hard spankings too and today, would be considered child abuse....no doubt about it!       :(

    I had a few of these spankings too, but never by my grandmother.

    My mom used the back of a rather large wooden hairbrush on my bottom.

    No, but I washed one of my son's mouths out with it once, when he was too lippy. My punishment was always to be put too bed, whatever time of day it was. I remember it happening once at about ten o'clock in the morning, I can't remember what I had done, but it didn't have to be much.

    10 in the morning! What a long nap!

    Yes it was a long day, I wanted to be out playing with my cousins, it was in the school summer holidays.

    Yep, this when we seem to get in more trouble with our parents and guardians because we're with them more during the school holidays.
    Bob/PKB

    WOW, whatever you did to deserve that, I betcha never did it again! That was harsh.
    sunnyB

    Yes my mother as very strict, I don't think it did me any harm though. How time's have changed, mind you when she did that with my older brother, he used to climb out of the bedroom window.
    Bob/PKB

    Did he get caught missing? How did your mom respond to that? When my sons got to a size and age, there was little I could say or do that affected them.
    sunnyB

    He didn't care Bob, he was a bit of a rebel.
    mycatsmom

    SunnyB, he wouldn't be climbing out the window, if he had my father for a father. Or my mother, for that matter.
    Bob/PKB

    sunnyB, my sister was that way, too. Give her a curfew; it meant nothing. A phone call would have given my parents some peace of mind... She did whatever she wanted.
    I don't know if I admire their gutsiness or am jealous of it. As a parent, I appreciate the phone call!

    Lux has a pleasant aftertaste...  Wasn't that the line of The Christmas Story?  My daughter has just resorted to doing this to her son, twice, but not needed anymore!  I remember having it done, as all of my siblings....

    Enjoy?

    No, but my mom used to beat my butt with the back of a wooden hairbrush.


    One of my teachers washed out a boy's mouth with soap. She made him lick the bar of soap.


    When I was a kid, my next door neighbor lady washed out one of her son's  mouth with soap.

    The things our parents could find to use to whip us kids with, ouch!
    Bob/PKB

    First day student teaching, 4th grade classroom, teacher pulls a VERY LARGE wooden brush from her bottom drawer and puts it on her desk. Then she tells the students, "I don't send anyone to the principal's office. I handle it right here."
    She never had a problem with any of them...
    hector5559

    who had a bum like a baboom,??
    Bob/PKB

    Not a one of them. The kids were pretty good, all things considered
