I was brought up in what was then West Germany during the 1970s. Both myself and my older sister were regularly spanked when we misbehaved.However, perhaps because of having children of different sexes, my mother always made sure that spankings were given in private, so I never actually watched Christina (who is five years my […]

  My mom had been gone for about two years and my dad was just starting to date the woman who would become my stepmom about a year later. My dad knew I needed to be around other women as much as I could, so I had started to spend time with my godmother, Michelle. […]

I was fortunate growing up to have a large contingent of extended family living in the same neighbourhood. My mom’s sister lived just a couple of blocks from us, in a house on a large lot in a cul-de-sac that backed up to woods. There were six kids living there at the time this took place […]

This happened one summer – I was around seven or eight years old and on vacation at my grandparents’ farm. It was a rainy day, so grandmother suggested that after lunch, we should bake cookies while my grandfather was in the barn feeding the animals. It was all great fun mixing up all the stuff […]

While I was at university in Heidelberg, Germany, I rented a room at a large house which was owned by a widow with two sons, who were aged eight and 11 respectively. Petra was an attractive woman – I guess she’d be in her late 30s by this time I’m talking about (late 1960s). One […]

When I was a girl, smacking was still a very common punishment for Britain’s naughty children and I’d like to share two specific memories I have of receiving CP.Like many English children of the time, I went on the train for a seaside holiday. If you are of the same generation as me, you’ll probably […]

As I mentioned in my story Spanking At The Campsite, the family friend I knew through church as Aunt Gege (although her real name was Kirsten) babysat me a lot during my childhood, along with the parents of my best friend Hannah.The incident I want to tell you about this time happened when I was eight […]

  Back in the day (well, the late 90s/early 00s to be a bit more precise), a rather eye-catching advert ran regularly in certain select publications. These adverts were for The Rod. The Rod was pretty much a modern-day successor to the cane – a 22in long dowel made from flexible nylon, with a padded […]

My grandpa and grandma weren’t really farmers, but they had a small parcel of land at the back of their property with a few animals, which ran into dense woodland, which they harvested for fuel. When I was eight years old I was sent to stay with my grandparents for a few days while my […]
