My father worked offshore for the majority of my adolescence so my mother was a strict disciplinarian in his absence. She favored her hand but as we grew older she switched to a spaghetti measurer. It was basically a mini-paddle with three holes. I honestly feel that spanking was the only form of punishment that I have ever reacted to. When I think about timeouts, no dessert or going to my room without supper I just can’t help but laugh. I’m not knocking it but I know how rambunctious my brother and I were growing up and I think it would have been difficult for my mother to keep us in line without the fear of corporal punishment.
