Ivory? I got Fels Naptha!
My friends taught me some new words and told me to say them to my mom. I still recall the look on her face.

I never got the switch, which is amazing seeing as how we got spanked with everything except the kitchen sink. Not that we didn’t deserve it :D

When properly given in the proper location a belt may leave a red place a spell maybe a day or so and it should be on the padded seater the Good LORD made such for that reason. Discipline is not bad. Spanking is not bad when needed. The regions where these kids were reported to be hit and bruised it is never justified period. Not with belt, hand, anything.

I got the belt or switch as a kid. A little bit of red in the back of the leg from the switch was a harmless reminder that my behavior had consequences.

I am a stepfather to now two grown women. When I married their mom they were early teens and my wife was not physically able to whip due to quadriplegia. Had they been boys? No problem for me to whip if it warranted. I used some just as effective means of punishment which got the message through.

I'll say this also the corporal punishment I got a few times at school was always far more painful than any belt or switching I had received at home. Those blame B.O.E. paddles hurt LOL.
