ThexDarksider Posted May 22, 2011 ID:432168 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I got my ass whooped several times when I was younger, but it was mostly the belt and not the spoon. (although the spoon did the job just as well) Link to post

goldhound Posted May 22, 2011 ID:432410 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Catholic school, Nuns and rulers there Wayne?? Haha! Close Steve.Army camps had both prots and cats mixed in the schools. Teacher or Principal would have you hold out your hands for the old Razor strop Funny part about all this is that i so looked forward to being an abusive parent, given my upbringing, oddly it didn't work! My two kids, one middle aged and one nearly, now claim that i was not quite tough enough on them. I say fine, i have learned my lesson and will tell you when and how hard to spank the grand kids, ok?
