I Am A Strict Mom

Has anyone ever had a hairbrush wear out after a lot of years of use as a tool to correct misbehavior? I'm wondering what I should do with the brush I got from my own mom it's seen a lot of wear now and while it isn't the only one I use it has a lot of sentimental value to me. Perhaps it's time to retire it?

I've been spanked many times with a wooden hairbrush but it never wore out.

@Crazychick Must have been made of a good strong wood! Everything has levels of cheapness, even wooden hairbrushes.

@TommyBoy My mum wouldn't buy anything of cheap quality, she never did.

@Crazychick Sounds about right. I've had wooden spoons break with the quickness, and others that were wished to be broken!

@TommyBoy My mum never used a wooden spoon to spank me. Her hairbrush did a good job though. :)

@Crazychick Oh I'm sure! An over the knee sized paddle will definitely do a good job. I mean, who even brushes their hair with them anymore? Lol

@TommyBoy I bought myself a wooden hairbrush very similar to my mum's one. I wanted it for both brushing my hair and other things. Lol :)

@Crazychick And does it...brush...your hair...well?? 😉

Crazychick · 36-40, F

@TommyBoy Yeah, and it does the other thing well as well. Lol :)

@Crazychick That is just fantastic! What kind of brush is it??

Crazychick · 36-40, F

@TommyBoy It's a bit like this:

@Crazychick I've always associated that style of brush bristles with a stronger wood. Very no-nonsense.

Crazychick · 36-40, F

@TommyBoy It is a strong wood. If it wasn't it might have broken by now. Lol :)

TommyBoy · 31-35, M

@Crazychick I don't doubt that at all! Steady application will do that with lower quality brushes lol.

@Crazychick They never do

@Strictmother Good. I don't want it to.
