I lived in New Jersey all my life. I had a younger sister named Alex. At the time it was1962. My mother was always pretty carefree. She never usually cared what me and my sister did. My father got sick of it. He divorced my mother and we never saw him again. My Mother sort […]
My mother was a schoolmistress in a small village primary school in Scotland in the 1950s, when the tawse was considered a piece of equipment essential in the maintenance of classroom discipline. It was not surprising, therefore, that she was an enthusiastic practitioner of corporal punishment not only in school, but also in the home. […]
Growing up in the 70s, my parents always gave a wonderful tanning to my brothers and sister but never me – I was almost always a perfect angel.This one time, however, we had been driving in the car for a long time. I always had to use the bathroom. We arrived home just to find […]
I was brought up in the 60s and 70s and at that time, parents generally were a good deal stricter with their kids than they are today – the cane was still used in most schools, including mine, and although I was never punished at school, at home both my parents and my mother in […]

This happened when I was about 10 or11 years old. I had asked my mom if I could go out to play with my friend Thomas. She said ‘yes’ – but then I went and played with some other kids instead. Meanwhile, Thomas called at my house and asked my mom if I wanted to […]
My parents were the greatest. They treated my sisters and I with love and tenderness. We had a wonderful life and all have gone on to be success stories in later life. My friend Sarah and I were at our cottage with my Mother one summer week. My Father was working and it was […]
My brother, who was two years older, and I got spanked once in a water-related escapade. We had come home from school and were going out to a church dinner that evening. We were sent upstairs to take a bath and get ready. During the transition from my brother getting out of the tub and […]
