it's such a shame that this meme is so much better because of the context! maybe steal the op meme and add this under so it's one meme and then submit. that would be awesome!
Been there. And the belt was hanging on a wall so it was easily accessible. Got to admit my old man didn`t play favorites. All five of us kids got beat regularly.
My parents used a wooden spoon or a hairbrush. In fact My youngest sister was adopted and during the homestudy interview with the social worker, they asked about discipline and my oldest sister piped up that "mom broke a hairbrush on my butt"
I definitely agree that there are benefits, and I know it helped me personally to(As long as it is not over used). I see kids in recent times were their parents don't lay a finger on there kids and they are the evillest brats you will ever meat.
I got spanked with a belt many times, but it didn't hurt. As in, at all. Maybe it's because I usually got spanked with a half-inch think wooden paddle and that hardened my buttocks...
