A Spanking-Filled Summer1

Johnny didn’t move as he waited for his step mother to come to the door. From the outside he could hear her footsteps as she got closer. The young eight-year old boy wanted to run, but the police officer had a firm grip on his shoulder. “Good morning Ms, I’m Officer Kevin Jarett, are you this young man’s mother?” “Yes sir,  I’m Jana Thompson.” “Step mother,” Johnny said. “Hush,” she instructed.” “Mrs. Thompson, Johnny was caught with a group of boys lighting firecrackers and setting little fires in the woods,” the office said. “Now, no formal charges have been filed, but the owner has taken out an order to keep the boys off the property. If they go there again, they will be arrested.” “I understand,” she said. “I can assure you he won’t get in any more trouble. Of course he may not be able to sit down for a week, but he won’t cause you any more problems.” The officer tipped his hat and flashed a slight grin. “That’s the way my mother would have handled it too,” he said. “She must have been a smart lady,” Jana said. “You have a nice day, and thank you again.” With that Jana led Johnny into the house and right into the kitchen.
