I don’t care what others say, but for a young boy, it hurts beyond all reason and I saw very few who could keep themselves under control during a hard caning. I was no different and yelled from the first and was crying well before the last. At the instruction to return to my seat, I managed to keep myself from rubbing but as I sat down gave another sharp yelp of pain. Well I did naturally have a go later at the two girls for their antics but was once again careful not push things too far as I didn’t wish a repeat caning any time soon. This was the first occasion that I noticed the varying reactions to the classroom punishment and one which was confirmed to me on other occasions now that my interest was stirred.
