Enemas for Attitude adjustment

I never received an enema for attitude adjustment; just for a good cleaning out for crankiness or an illness, or general health reasons.

I never received enemas as a child nor administered to my own.

I don't remember being punished too much as a child, perhaps a few naughty things I did but nothing I specifically remember. My parents were certainly old enough to have been of the enema generation but I never knew of either having a bag in the house.

I often got an enema as part of attitude adjustment for misbehaving mother had set way of punishment rectal temp taken first thermometer lube,d with vicks once taken large soap stick be inserted as far up as possible had to stand on kitchen chair wile soap began to work then bent over for spanking then more corner time until soap was on point making me go once been got hot soapy enema followed by few rinses

As a child, I was given soapsuds enemas for a stomach ache and for being naughty by my mother. As a teenager, my dad was the one giving the enemas.

My Mom and Samgin's mom were kindred spirits. When I needed an attitude adjustment I got pretty much the same that he did. First a rectal temp. then a lubed finger into my anus to make sure it was well lubed, Then a soap stick or two were shoved into my rectum and bowels as far as her finger could go to get them in as far as possible. After a few minutes in the corner, she would come over with an 8 ounce bulb of warm water and squirt it in to start the soap sticks melting. Then after a few more minutes in the corner I was taken into the bathroom for a series of 8 ounce bulbs going into my rosebud hole one after the other and then a one quart bag of warm soapy water. Cramps were horrible. Between my red hiney from her spanking and the enema my attitude was fully adjusted.

In my family the tradition is suppositories rather than enemas - but they are used for punishment. I used to be covert about that motivation but after a while I thought "why? my parents were unashamed about the spanking-and-suppository routine, and if it works, why should they be...?"

A double-balloon 'retention' nozzle will prevent 99% of leakage. Three quarts of warm water with 10mg of bisacodyl (two Dulcolax or equivalent tablets) will try like hell to evacuate itself, but with the retention nozzle it positively cannot. If you want to experience excruciating cramps and a type of pain that I can only imagine as second only to childbirth, give that a try... if you dare. If you are doing this to punish someone else, restraints, and maybe a gag, are a must. This should be safe, but the subject will insist that he/she is dying and will remember the experience for years to come.

Of course, your pain is never as bad as mine. Having said that, you do not know pain until you have passed a kidney stone. On the two occasions that I have done it, it was not just a local pain in region of the lower back. My whole body was affected. There was no way of getting away from it like you might somehow minimize the pain of a broken bone or some other injury.

I have spoken to women who have given birth, an experience we all agree is long and painful. They have told me that a kidney stone is worse.

The point of all of this is that I find it hard to believe that any enema would be that painful.

Oh definitely! If I was cranky, or uncooperative, Mom would say I needed an enema. My clothes would be taken away, and Mom would give me the biggest soap suds enema that I could take. Then she would make me hold it till I had tears in my eyes. If it was early enough in the day I might not get my clothes back as part of the discipline

Looks as though a lot of us were no strangers to rectal temperature. And a soapstick shoved up the bum seem common. I used to fight the enema nozzle going in me. Now I love it nothing like a good hot soapy enema!

I don't recall ever getting an enema for attitude adjustment. The leather strap was used for that. And both were used frequently. Enemas were given by mom for even the slightest reasons: no bowel movement for a day, at the onset of any illness, or just because she felt I needed to be cleaned out. And it didn't take much of a reason for her to really heat my fanny up good with the strap. That just the way it was growing up in the 50's.

As emom said earlier in this thread, enemas were never given as a punishment or in connection with a spanking but my mother could tell when I was "out of sorts" and an enema would soon be given. Not always at the moment but certainlyin the evening. There would be no doubt about it and the enema bag would soon be filling up. Most times there would be a second filling of the bag with the injection soon following.

I do have to be in a certain frame of mind, or Attitude, when I take an enema. Depending on the circumstances, part of the prep may be just adjusting my attitude, or getting in the right frame of mind. Especially for something like an ESS. or a 4-qt enema or something challenging like that.

Enemas should never be given as a punishment especially to children. Only for medical reasons. 😃

Kid: In our case, the enema is not really "punishment" per se... the idea is that the whole process, including the big bowel movement, calms down the patient.

'Attitude adjustment', is often just a euphemism for punishing someone, for making someone act differently. It sounds less physical an activity than punishment.

It probably comes from the idiomatic 'hearts and minds' saying which is then immediately corrected to the more prosaic 'get them by the balls' version.

So I take 'attitude adjustment' as a rather mean spirited way of saying, but yet not saying, that someone is in for a serious (physical) punishment.

Along with terminology such as behaviour modification techniques, firm (stern) corrective measures, punitive actions, enhanced physical therapy & even coercive management applications could also find it's way into this category

Literature pertaining to cases of such relative to abusive practices real or perceived are littered with descriptives of like in hidden meanings/ phrases / suggestives etc etc

The latter I'd learnt of from former military personnel that took up employment with corrective services...I recall a time when first hearing the term collateral damage & dismissed it offhand..as given the time, collateral meant putting up a security that would be forfeited in the event of defaulting....only later to recognize the sinister connotations

Aussie and agracier--you have that right. I agree with others that an enema is terribly misused if it is employed as a punishment, which is what an "attitude adjustment" really is. Enemas should only be used for medical reasons or for enjoyment.

Thanks for writing.

Sure thing. Mom had put me on a every other week enema schedule. If I was acting cranky that schedule could be moved up. I was never given an enema in conjunction with a spanking. But getting multiple spankings over a short period of time, meant an enema was likely coming soon.

Happy Easter Folk.....happy to be here.

Thank You Box Car Happy Easter to you to. 😃

I received regular enemas as a small child.. They were small and gentle and not given for attitude adjustment. Now, decades later I give myself enemas for the feelings of well being, energy, and relaxation -- attitude adjustment???

One time when I was about 11 or 12 my aunt who raised be caught me smoking. She gave me an enema to clean out the poison from the cigarettes, but the enema was twice the volume I usually got...like almost 2 quarts, very hot and very soapy! It was horrible and I screamed and begged her to stop. She kept saying, "Maybe after this you won't ever smoke again." That was by all means an "attitude adjustment" enema, although she never said it was to punish me. I got the message for sure.

I suppose many of my Enema situations can be considered "Attitude Adjustment" Enemas but in a bit of a different way. It is never really the case that I am given an Enema for being crabby or misbehaving or anything like that, although often it is said it is because I have been "Naughty" or whatever that is all just part of the fun for me. Attitude adjustment seldom is a spoken aloud reason for the situation to arise. The reality of it is I have very little alone time and therefore do not get my tummy filled even close to as often as I would if I had the time alone to do it. The attitude adjustment is more a case of my attitude will be terrible after I have gone a certain amount of time craving an Enema and have not got one, I can get quite crabby once I'm in this craving mood and it can even turn into almost angry if the time is available to do it and the time is not capitalized on and the window to do it slips away where as had I been taken care of. Think I am about overdue now just from talking about it, gonna hope I can make an appointment to get a full day treatment soon so I don't end up crabby 😜

I was sometimes given enemas for being cranky or whiny as a kid. As a teen I was suspended from school for a week. I was given a large enema every morning to "reinforce" the lesson. I pretended to hate them but loved every one.

Enemas can be a lot of fun.

Parents who use/used enemas as a form of punishment, or behaviour modification are SERIOUSLY treading a fine line with abuse, and sexual abuse.

If your parents did it to you- Shame on them.

If you do it to your children, you are imposing your kinky desires on them, and that's ILLEGAL.

Obviously when you take an enema it has to be with a certain mindset, aka "Attitude"

You have to go in thinking about getting that clear return, then focus on injection retention and expulsion in turn and in the end the success.

If you can't put yourself in that frame of mind you are better off ut swallowing a high dose of bisacodyl an hoping it is not too slow

I think very few people take an enema with the intention of having a clear return or wanting to take a high dose of bisacodyl for a rapid bowel movement.

I guess you could consider some of the enemas I got as a child as an "attitude adjustment" in that if I was constipated and moping around the house an enema usually cured the situation and perked me up. Even today as an adult, there are times when a good enema improves my attitude and the rest of the day. Even if I am not really constipated, a good enema can do that.

I cannot recall ever being constipated as a child. Our mother gave us regularly scheduled enemas, so we never had time to get constipated. It was as we left home that we both realized we couldn't move our bowels without some sort of help. I feel sure our mother's insistence on clean bowels is the cause.

Now, I would like to believe she was genuinely concerned for our health, but I suspect she was a klismaphile, and just enjoyed giving them. She and her sister did them together frequently; and if our aunt was visiting, she would sometimes do ours.

Both of us readily admit (to each other) that we love enemas, and do them for more reasons than chronic constipation. We also realize that sometime around 10 years old, we began to enjoy the enemas.
