Have your parents ever punished you with a belt?

I get the belt sometimes it is one of the tools my parents use. Probably get that every month maybe

More times than I care to remember, and I was between 10 and 17.

From I was 6-16, not often, though. Bamboo cane was more preferred.

Everything hurts! But some hurt more than others

No, but with ruler and switch and cane.

I feared the belt all my childhood and teen years trying to avoid to deserve it. Not always with much success 🙁 I got it until I reached the age of 17/18 y, and always when I deserved it (more in my childhood, then 3-4 times in a year)

@pinkrainbowkisses: It's just a thing that happened. I'm okay with it now. Everyone has problems, even my parents. :)

yes i got it a lot as a child and into my teens also my sister got the same

many times till i moves outh when finished with school

Strap, hair brush, switch through my teens until I left home.

Well I am sure I earned mine lol

Dad used a strap - similar to a belt

both... my parents were very strict but i always was a rebel and if it wasnt for my attitude towards rules i could have avoided many of those encounters with the belt

I don't think hands hurt as much as the belt. At least my parents started to use the belt on me when I was 4 cos hand spankings didn't hurt enough to make me behave.

@boorjulie @Zsuzsanna1: the bamboo cane was the preferred instrument in my day, in homes and especially in schools.

Very often right up until teenager years.
They used a cable, rarely a belt.
I agree with Pinkrainbow, palms hurt a lot.

I think it taught me to be responsible for my actions and though it hurt at the time I am still here

Zsuzsanna1: A bamboo cane? That must hurt like hell. Did you get hit often with it?

Maybe at least 3 or 4 times a year. I got spanked bare bottom from age 7-17.

@caramella: Like an extension cord? That sounds terrible to me.

Madgirl, at least it didn't happen too often.

I am 16 and they still do it weekly.

I don't recall either of my parents ever wearing a belt. It was more fists with them. Started when I was 18 months old and finished when I was 16 years old. By then, I had a fist of my own. I still do. And I never, ever use it.

Madgirl, that must have been really bad. My best friend got the belt at least once a week and I saw the belt marks on her. How often did they punish you?

i got the switch as a child to. My sister disobeyed mother and she got it long and hard she had blood on her cheeks and could not sit right for days

not often. Theres only one time i remember in detail. I was physically punished but not with a belt.

i was punished unfairly some i did deserve but most i did not. My sister was a bit naughty some times

during my worst times propably every month... but it got fewer the older i became

i look back at mine and i now know some i did deserve but most was unfair

Caramella, I believe it did sting, I guess it left marks on you for some days.

Madgirl: Were you naughty or were your parents too strict?

Just once when I was young.

Lol yes, but only a few times per "session" . It did sting, though.

I got it all the time until I was strong enough to fight back

carreanderson do you think it made you a better person

i was misdiagnosed and sufferd for it

Nevergiveup: Were you both so naughty?

@caramella: A cable? That sounds terrible.

What did you do andreas16 to get the belt?

Maybe once or twice when I was little

Boorjulie: a cord I meant

parents?... no...
