I Wear Short Trousers

I wear shorts whenever it's warm enough. This year that was between around April and Early October
As boy growing up I wore shorts until age 14. They were compulsory at school until age 12 but my mum kept me in them until 14. Some boys were kept in shorts until 16.
Parents often punished boys by putting them back in shorts when they were naughty.

My parents where old fashion so they kept me in shorts to school, church, home until I was 18.

@Schoolboy I regard their behaviour as abusive, Church too, if they compelled that with no account of your own religious ideas.

Did you ever manage to get out of them, perhaps when an independent adult, their motives? Or an apology? Or are they too blinkered to know and so perhaps best just abandoned to their own misery?
