I have a healthy respect for the cane certainly but a confused one also. I have heard some recipients refer to its bite as the “worst pain ever felt” at on end of the spectrum while hearing others say “thousands of school boys have managed its sting quite stoically and while it hurts it is certainly tolerable.” at the other end of the spectrum. I have seen images that suggest that six of the school cane does a good deal of damage that lasts for up to several weeks and images that suggest that it produces no more than red stripes that disappear within an hour or so. There seems to be no consistent description or response to what is described as essentially the same experience.
