I was definitely spanked growing up.

I was made to sit and listen to a Barry Manilow record 😫

My father and his second wife got out of hand and the authorities took myself, brother and sister away from his custody.

Being put over the lap and getting the bare bottom spanked with mum's wooden hairbrush was the usual punishment for my sister and me. My mother was not stricter than most mothers at the time but she was a very consistent disciplinarian and did not spare the brush.
The method worked very well and my sister and I agree that we never got an undeserved spanking and also that we benefitted from mum's hairbrush being so closely acquainted with our bottoms. We learned the needed lessons and it felt reassuring and safe when we had been spanked and were forgiven.

Same here. Regular spankings and the cane when I was older

Generally, just 'The Look'....that was enough! I never was much of a rebel anyways...

Yelled at, spanked, the belt, restrictions

Nope - I had a very happy childhood.

My mom hit us with whatever was handy: shoes, belts, hairbrushes, remote controls.

fear, violence, insults, usually but nothing extreme, some very light terror and violence and insults.

Very rarely, if my mom told my dad on me dad would take me to the garage, close the door and pretend to spank me and I would pretend to cry just to satisfy my mother. I was obviously a "Daddy's boy" LOL

my youngest brother got most of the spankings

Spanked often up to the age of 12.

Very inconsistently. It just depended on the mood of either parent.

I seldom saw the belt, was made to eat soap for cussing. Punishment was mostly guilt trips and undiluted psychological lime Koolaid.

Parents before year 2000 usually don’t hesitate. I wonder whether millennial parents hit their kids.

My parents spanked me until puberty. After that, I was grounded.

Cattle prod

My parents sound like yours.I hated hearing the big garage door open. The yelling begins.I dont miss it.

no that I am a parent my oldest gets spanked

I was spanked with a slipper, which is the main reason why I like ladies to spank me with a slipper now (hence my choice of avatar).

Things were taken away, privileges revoked and Spanked and not in a sexual way, any of you freakazoids.

Me, my middle sister and my brother were all spanked, hand or hairbrush to clothed butt, until we were about 11. The folks had mixed feelings about it, even though they were raised with spankings. They didn’t believe in spanking teenagers, and I don’t think they spanked our youngest sister at all. And I know my niece wasn’t ever spanked. After age 11 we were grounded, and lost privileges, phone, tv, going out, and later, driving.

A belt to my naked ass
