I Used to Get the Cane At School

When I was growing up, the cane was used anywhere, not just at school and in the home... places like the cubs and scouts, the choirmaster at church and the Sunday school teacher, among others. This was the natural order and had the benefit of consistent expectations and consequences everywhere. At that time, parental assent was assumed unless they opted out, but that made life worse not better for their offspring because it created confusion and put them on the receiving end of teasing, being accused of being "mummy's little boy" or a softie or whatever. Some, for that reason, opted to be caned like their friends. This will seem odd or alien to this generation, but this was a very different age, when there were rules and consequences. If punished at school or elsewhere, parents generally supported the action taken.... certainly no forays to the European Court of Justice...

Very true I remember some parents having canes and they would use them when needed

@skimpyboy As I have said before, it was the natural order at that time, and nobody thought it odd. If not the cane, then something else

@westfield at home I was strapped following a caning at school

westfield · 70-79, M

@skimpyboy I assume they inspected the damage before adding their own!

@skimpyboy for me it would be dad's strap if I did wrong

NortiusMaximus · M

@skimpyboy A few parents had canes. My mother caned my sisters and me.

skimpyboy · 56-60, M

@NortiusMaximus my mother had a thick strap and her best friend had a cane which she used on me

NortiusMaximus · M

@skimpyboy My mother used a plimsoll usually. The cane was for when we'd been extra naughty.

skimpyboy · 56-60, M

@NortiusMaximus the slipper was painful at school , mother's friend was a very hard caner

NortiusMaximus · M

@skimpyboy It was common at school for us.

skimpyboy · 56-60, M

@NortiusMaximus yes was at my school , I hated lines and detentions

NortiusMaximus · M

@skimpyboy I'm the same. Detention was especially bad as the slightest misbehaviour there resulted in a slippering anyway.

skimpyboy · 56-60, M

@NortiusMaximus if we misbehaved in detention it was a caning and if it was reported to the head lines were also issued

NortiusMaximus · M

@skimpyboy Even worse. Given a choice of the slipper or detention, the slipper would win every time.

skimpyboy · 56-60, M

@NortiusMaximus same here , slipper was not bad if it was three whacks

NortiusMaximus · M

@skimpyboy That's what we usually got, just two or three. We got a lot more at home though.

barney1 · M

@NortiusMaximus how many of you at home?

NortiusMaximus · M

@barney1 Four of us - mum, my two sisters and me. My parents were divorced.

skimpyboy · 56-60, M

@NortiusMaximus my home punishment was double what I got at school and if mother's friend caned me it was also embarrassing

barney1 · M

@NortiusMaximus so mum had her hands full then I expect

NortiusMaximus · M

@skimpyboy We got more at home than at school and always bare.

barney1 · M

@NortiusMaximus no modesty at home!

skimpyboy · 56-60, M

@NortiusMaximus yes I was bare at home and taken down the back street to mother's friend

skimpyboy · 56-60, M

@barney1 very true always nude

westfield · 70-79, M

@barney1 yes, home beatings were always nude, in our case in the family room for all to see, whatever gender, "so that you learn from each other's errors!". Certainly no hiding of 'bits' permitted, and generally in postures that exposed them.

NortiusMaximus · M

@westfield Same here, my sisters and I were spanked bare arse in front of each other.
