Name the things your parents used to whip you with.......


Remember those race tracks you use to get as gifts? Can't remember the name but they were orange. I think my mom liked them more than my brother and I!

Of course there was the traditional belt and hickory.

Dad's duty belt, spatula, wooden spoon, hand, a switch I cut myself

Needless to say I had some discipline issues as a child

Every one I got, regardless of the implement used , I deserved and I missed out on many that I just didn't get caught for.

my dad would whip me and my brother so bad w/ a belt that we would have huge bruises on the back of our legs, and we literally couldn't sit down.

I tried to run once, but apparently my hair makes a pretty good handle.

Last words out of my Dad's mouth, anywhere he left me..."If he gets out of line bust his ass."

my favorite was"this is going to hurt me a lot more than it'll hurt you"

apparently "you want to trade places?" makes Dad feel all better about it..........:eek:lol:

sometimes, you just got to learn the hard way........and for me, that was always the preferred choice.

I got the hairbrush, a wooden spoon and a belt. Somehow my parents believed the using their bare hands would be abusive, but foreign objects made it OK. :lol:

my mom used a vast assortment of things, but for my dad, the hand was more than enough to strike fear! One thing about him, though, is that he was very private about administering the whippings. If we were on vacation visiting family or something like that, he would always wait 'til we got back home. One summer when I was 10 or so and my older brother was 13, we drove from Crossville, TN to Kileen, TX where my sister and her husband were stationed. We were there for 3 or 4 days, and that's the summer my dad introduced his infamous "lick list." He would keep a running talley (complete with the 5 lines and then a line through them & so on) of whippings ("licks") he was gonna give us when we got back home. During the visit, we would occasionally notice our dad take out his wallet, remove the list and make a mark on it. My brother and I would look at each other and cringe! This was a case where the anticipation of getting back home was far worse than the actual punishment - completely ruined the entire vacation for us. We tried several times to talk our dad into just going ahead and giving us our licks to get them over with, but he refused. I remember very clearly by the time we got back to TN, my brother had 32 licks coming, and I had 12. I took mine first so that I could revel in hearing my brother get his. Ahh, those quaint days of childhood. :jpshakehead:

My mom would hold me by the ear and beat my ass with anything she could find. I will say that I deserved each and every one. I also got at least one busting in each and every grade except 6th grade, and yes this includes KINDERGARTEN!!!!!!!!!!:vava:

When my Mom got mad she would say "When your father gets home you're gonna get it". I always did but felt sorry he had to face that crap after a hard days work as much as the punishment I received.
