About spanking disciplinary

Do you think that spanking worked in these times at home ??

Don't know about current disciplinary spanking. It certainly worked when I was growing up.

In a long and happy marriage it seems my wife has to paddle my bare butt about twice a yr------We both know when a bare paddling has to settle things so no argument ever about that-----so I would say it has worked fine for us----We are probably among a tiny tiny minority

For me personally childhood spankings were not effective discipline. I just learnt to stay out of my dad's way. He was often angry about something and would lash out physically. So when I was growing up, spankings weren't fair or predictable.

I think the the cost of being spanked as a child is my spanking kink. I've had a lot of fun with it, but it makes it harder to find a sexually compatible partner. You can't usually pick someone up on a night out!

Oh getting spanked worked all right!! Got my attention right now. It was as much the embarrassment of having to be over my mother knee with my bare bottom exposed and her lecturing me before the spanking began. It was usually with hand but with more major issues, the dreaded hairbrush or paddle came out and really warmed up my bottom. However, afterward nothing but pure mother love was expressed and it actually made me feel closer to my mother. Denise

As I have mentioned a few times before, I have always enjoyed most of my spankings. I even asked my mother if she would continue to paddle me, once I started high school. Ordinarily, most mothers would say no, but my mom was a product of the Deep South- Louisiana. So, my spankings continued until I finished graduate school at age 23. Mom and I were always close and we used to sit in the kitchen on Friday nights and have a few drinks, once I turned 21. Mom would talk with me as if I had no brothers or sisters around (I have 2 brothers & 2 sisters). Those were special times, believe me!

As a child I found spankings to be both painful and scary. I got it with a belt over my jeans and it hurt like hell, but it never altered my behavior.

Perhaps, that behavior would have been altered if those jeans/pants had been taken down, SickBoy69!!!

How yes I certainly think the spankings I received at home were effective at changing my behavior! My Dad or Mom would not hesitate a moment to spank any one of my brothers or sister using the "tried & true" method. Directly stated, they would sit down in an arm less chair, place you across their lap, take down your pants & underwear and then proceed to swat your bared butt! Scolding would be included and a few questions you had better answer the "right way." Afterwards they would give you a hug and have you stand in a corner for a while to think about your behavior.

So? Did this "work?" Well it very much appears it did because all five of us are responsible, educated and productive citizens.

It is difficult to argue with results however during the times I was laying across my Dad's or Moms' lap I would have been inclined to disagree, Ha!Ha!Ha!

Sounds like ... drumroll... whether spanking works or not depends on the individual circumstances, which is why smart parents will have available many different methods to guide and discipline depending on what works.

One thing that is likely is those people for whom spanking didn't work and whose parents gravitated towards it got more spankings than those it worked on.

I got spanked growing up and even if it worked, I don't advocate it. As we got older, my parents more often used things like making us hold uncomfortable positions as a physical punishment. That could honestly be just as physically unpleasant but it doesn't involve hitting.

That sounds interesting. Can you give some examples?

Yes I think spanking worked.

In the past, if I had done something wrong and I got spanked, I avoided doing that again.

One thing I remember well is spanking for smoking. I started smoking when I was 14 and after 2 weeks my mother found cigarettes in my bag. I certainly hadn't had a spanking for 2 years, but that changed quickly. Off to the parents' bedroom and get the cane for smoking. And it helped, never got another cigarette.

Luckily times are different now and I'm not a proponent of spanking either.
