For a second we looked at each other, there was nothing more to say. Mum broke the silence: “If you’re sure, then now is the time. Take down your shorts and pants – once you’ve bared that bottom for me, there’s no going back.”
I was extremely nervous. I knew it was going to hurt, but I was totally unprepared for what followed. Nevertheless I obeyed the instruction and bared my bottom. Once I had done that, I stood in front of Mum with my hands over my privates, feeling very vulnerable.
Mum spoke quite calmly. She took hold of my arm and repeated that there was no going back now – I was going to get the spanking I had asked for. As she spoke, she pulled me towards her and with the words ‘over you go’, I found myself over my mother’s knees for the first and only time in my life.
