Mother was more than somewhat astonished.

“I had to be fair. Jerry, Duke, and Alan got spanked at home, so…”

“My Mother thinks he is very brave,” Paul interrupted. She said he is a really fine boy and that you should be proud of him.

I looked at Paul in somewhat surprise.

“I heard her,” He admitted. I had my door open listening to you getting spanked.”

Mother laughed out loud.

“Well if you have been punished like everyone else,” She said to me, ” I guess you get your TV privileges back as well as no more extra chores. However, Peter, I may have to start spanking you myself!”

I stared at my mother, shocked that she had said such a thing.

We had Milk and cookies in the kitchen before Paul left.
