I think that most boys who have received the cane at school a few times very quickly come to realize the essential features of a good caning and where the cane should land. Boys tend to discuss such things among themselves. The transition from the fast end to the slow is easy. As one of my teachers told me – it is not really possible to cane too hard. One or two good strokes are much more effective than any number of feeble ones. This is assuming the cane has been chosen for the task – not too big and heavy. Thereafter, practice makes perfect.
