I’m an adult now but as a girl and teen, I was subject to my mother’s strict discipline. Mother was an expert in giving spankings to me and my sister – but she specialised in corner time. I memorized the wallpaper due to all the time I spent staring into the living room corner. Just […]

Cleaning out the poison
I guess I was about eight, and very proud of myself – I had smoked two of my brother’s cigarettes and gotten away with it. However, it was clear when I entered the kitchen that I had not! There was mother! “Get to your bedroom right now. I saw those cigarettes. Take your shoes and […]
Well swatted
I grew up in a typical middle-class 1960s household in the midwest, the middle child in a three-daughter family. When we were quite young, my parents would sometimes rely on spankings to correct their brood, but they weren’t severe and were soon forgotten. They consisted mainly of a couple of swats on the seat preceding […]
Getting even
My twin sister Jenny and I were well-behaved kids, but of course we occasionally did something wrong and suffered the consequences. Our mother was a warm but no-nonsense type person who had no compunctions about spanking or paddling us if we deliberately transgressed. Under most circumstances, if she felt we had been very bad, she […]
A firm hand
When I was nine or 10, I was something of a brat – but my mom hadn’t spanked me in a couple of years. Then one day, something happened to change all that! I was playing in the front yard with my friend Cheryl and my mother was talking to our next door neighbour. A […]
The coffee table
I remember getting spanked several times while a young boy – but one particular incident stands out more than others in my mind. This particular incident began when my mother called my older brother and I into the living room. Someone had written on her coffee table and she was steamed! She asked us who […]
Memories of Mother
As children, when we were naughty mother would take us across her lap for a spanking using her bare hand. The ritual was always the same, even when both of us had earned spankings together. We would be led to mother’s bedroom, where she would sit on a blanket chest at the foot of her […]
Assisting
It must be remembered that in Britain in the 1950s, corporal punishment was widely used to discipline children – boys and girls alike – both in the home and at school. I well remember when I was about 12 visiting a friend of my mother. I was sent to the playroom with her friend’s daughter, […]
Coming right up
In the late 1940s it was common practice to punish children with spanking – yet by the age of nine I never had gotten one. My friends spent many a time over their parents’ knees, winding up with a sore bottom, but I got grounded or had my privileges revoked for a period of time. […]
The ladies room
Several of your stories reminded me of something that actually happened to me a little over 10 years ago. I was doing some last minute Christmas shopping at our local mall when I stopped into the ladies lounge to freshen up. As I was finishing up and standing at the sink, touching up my hair, […]
