"Getting the Strap"... Birdie

I was raised by strict loving parents who firmly applied corporal punishment as needed. Minor misbehavior was dealt with on the spot by Mom with her paddle. This was sometimes followed by corner time with my punished bottom on display as a warning to my siblings. More serious transgressions merited "getting the strap".

"Getting the strap" was a very memorable and extremely effective punishment ritual. First there was the dreadful waiting to be strapped by Dad at bedtime. Then being sent to bed right after supper to nervously await my parents arrival. Then being ordered to get up out of bed and undress.Then having to stand exposed from the waist down for a scolding discussion of my behavior. Then Dad removing his belt and moving me into position. Then the strapping itself with pauses for reminding me to "HOLD STILL". And me trying to hold still as the strap kept making my bottom dance and wiggle all around in a futile attempt to avoid it.

My parents strapping ritual was quite effective. It was extremely rare for any of us to ever earn another strapping for the same offence.

In my early twenties, my ex's strict religious parents let us live in their house rent-free so I could continue with my education. We first had to agree to follow their very reasonable House Rules or receive their strict old-fashioned discipline. They loved me very much and wanted me to be the daughter they never had.

One day, I was as so upset with Brian that I had an angry outburst in front of his parents that included profanity. I had always had an anger management problem and had said many things when upset that I later regretted. I knew how such a flagrant violation of their House Rules required them to respond, so I quickly removed my jeans and my panties. His mom paddled me and instructed me to leave my bottom bared because I would be "getting the strap" later.

After we cleaned up from dinner, his dad sat on the sofa and positioned me over his lap to strap me soundly with a short leather belt. He paused periodically to continue the discussion of my behavior. They always made sure that I understood exactly why I was being punished and that they both loved me very much and didn't want to have to punish me again. He strapped me with a diligence meant to help me gain control of my hurtful profane outbursts.

When my strapping was finished, they always hugged me and told me again how much they loved me. I always sobbed and apologized for my behavior as I hugged them back and told them that I loved them.

Actually, to my surprise, after a few of these strapped bottom punishments, I began to be much better able to control my words and actions when upset or angry.

My punishments were always well deserved and always given with a loving intend to improve my character and behavior. Birdie

This should be marked as a fetish post.

@LeopoldBloom erm … no. Talking about corporal punishment is not immediately fetish.
@LookingIn The way this is described comes across that way.

@LeopoldBloom in your opinion but I can see no fetish content merely discussion of lived experience of corporal punishment.
Here's a serious reference on the effects of corporal punishment: [b]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3447048/[/b]

Subsequent prospective studies yielded similar results, whether they controlled for parental age, child age, race and family structure; poverty, child age, ...[/quote]

@ElwoodBlues I appreciate your comment and I know you are correct. I'm part of the generation that was spanked as a child but didn't spank our children.

I also know that my loving parents raised us as they were raised and had the best of intentions. Birdie
@GrinNude I'm part of that generation as well. I was raised with spanking and considered it a reasonable part of discipline. A heart to heart talk with my mother-in-law convinced me to raise kids without corporal punishment, and I'm so glad she did. At times I found it hard to resist the urge to spank, but I now have a much better relationship with my kids than my own parents had with me.

@ElwoodBlues Kids don't come with an instruction manual and it's not always easy to know what is best.

Taking away a child's cellphone today is probably more traumatic than anything we went through. Lol Birdie
