Oh, so that's what she meant when he got "excited".

It would. That's a more effective way to do a time-out, but I hope you were just exaggerating when you said "for hours".

When my mom put soap in my sister's mouth (more often than not) or mine she used liquid soap, and not the bar stuff.

The last spanking I remember getting made my mother cry harder than my sister and I.

Someone I knew told me about getting her mouth washed out with soap for saying "penis". I didn't think to ask why she was saying it though.

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, I used to get that, too with the soap. Not very often, but sometimes, it would happen.

[Candy Kappa]

holy c*** people.


I've never gotten as much as a slap on my hand... I must have been an angel

[BubblyShell22]

Well, I repeat, it didn't happen often, but it happened. Back in those days, you could spank kids and get away with it. Now, you can't, which is why kids are behaving the way that they are. That doesn't excuse what this guy did though because his daughter was too old to get spanked. But for younger kids, they often need a good smack on the behind to keep them in line.

Edit: Fixed my error.

I like you, Bubbly, I really do, but this just doesn't make sense.

I never really timed it, honestly, but it sure as hell felt that long.

I don't think it has as much to do with spanking becoming a "no-no" than with the fact that a lot of kids don't get reprimanded at this point. I don't think you need to hit a kid to make them behave, but when you see kids running around doing whatever the f*ck they want, it's very clear that the parents don't enforce any rules in any way. You don't need to smack a child to punish them.

Oops. I hate typos. I meant to say, "Well, it didn't happen often, but it happened." I guess I just didn't catch that. My bad. I'll go fix that right away.

That's very true, Peanut. I'm not saying you have to spank a kid to get them to behave, but I do think it would be a good thing to do at certain times if nothing else works. Trust me, we knew that if we misbehaved, we were going to get spanked. Dad only had to take us out of church once for us to get the message to behave. We never did it again.

OMG, bet she heard that word on tv.

If you remember that American Idol joke contestant, William Hung, he was performing "Take Me Out To The Ball Game" at the 7th inning stretch (Texas Rangers @ Toronto Blue Jays). I cracked up laughing when he sang, "Buy me some penis & Cracker Jacks."

I know it's broken English & meant to say peanuts. An elderly Mexican lady cracked me up with the 12 Days of Christmas, singing 10 Lords a Leaking! When the Lords have gotta go, they gotta go!

Washing the mouth out with soap, just like A Christmas Story (You'll shoot your eye out!).

that was actually what I meant when I said "excited." The actual term this mother used was "hard" but I didn't want to come out and just say it on here.

I'm curious though Storm Eagle what did you think I meant when I said "excited."

To be honest, I really wasn't sure.

Is hot saucing really that bad? Apprantently some people still do it. Was this abuse? It seems the lines of abuse and disipline are so blurred now. Who here was actually spanked growing up or made to take cold showers? In places like Korea they actually spank students all the way up to high school in front of classmates. Funny how different cultures have different views.

Are you sure you want to ask everyone to share their spanking stories?

I read about that hot-saucing story. I've only known about one person to do that sort of thing to their kids, but the case you mentioned sounded rather extreme from what I read. It sounds like she gave him an excessive amount to take in. Just a dab on the tongue would have been all right, but not the way she did it.

I don't have a problem with corporal punishment in schools, but they should at least have the parents' consent. There are parents who spank their kids yet don't believe in school faculty doing it to kids. Though if the school doesn't rely on consent, and parents have a problem with their kids being spanked in school, then the parents should just simply not have their kid attend that school. Though if it's state-wide or country-wide, perhaps just move to another state pr country where that doesn't happen, I guess.

I didn't mean with details. Just whether they did or not.

some southern states still do it in schools don't they? Corporal punishment in schools seems to be falling out of favor all over the world though, not just here. I hear Japan stopped doing that awhile ago and I always thought they were more traditional over there. Korea still does it.

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, I think southern states still do use corporal punishment in some instances.

I'd be more interested in knowing about the ones who, like yourself, haven't. The ones who have must be the majority, and probably at 90-something percent.

I know that Texas is one of them. In fact, I remember Inside Edition doing a story back in 1993 about how it's still used in schools in the US, and how some parents didn't like it. I remember one parent having her kids homeschooled because of it. They even showed a map of the US states where the ones that use that type of punishment in schools were lit. I already mentioned Texas, but the only other one I remember lit on the map is Alaska. By the way, I have a co-worker who used to live in Texas who's in his early 30s. Even he confirmed that Texas schools used corporal punishment.

My friend is a teacher and I told him about this, and he didn't believe me when I said that schools in the US still use corporal punishment to this day. I told him about the Inside Edition story, and he had the nerve to tell me that I must have misinterpreted the whole thing. That was damn insulting, because I can tell you that there's no way anyone with a brain could misinterpret anything in the story. He said that if any state had schools that used corporal punishment, that he'd be moving to one of them right away. He has mentioned smacking students in the head, which I don't agree with. He should at least have the parents' consent if he's going to do something like that (though not necessarily in the head), and I wonder what his boss would think if s/he knew that he had been doing that.
