I was caned three times at school.
Twice on the bottom once on the hands.
The first time was when I was eleven by the headmistress, who gave me two strokes on the bottom for forging a teacher’s signature. This hurt made me cry and left two burning stripes for about three days.
I was then caned when I was thirteen by the same woman for
fighting with a girl.On this occasion, i got two strokes on each hand and although it hurt I did not moan or cry out.
