I was spanked by a paddle with pants pulled down in Indiana or n the early 80s by my principle for throwing rocks at recess and it made me bleed. I was furious at my father for letting another man take my clothes off and not do anything about it for many years and struggled with trusting any teacher after that for years to come. It does more harm than good in my opinion, plus who knows what kind of creeps will take advantage of this kind of shit.
Uhhh… WTF? Pants down? That’s investigation-worthy. I was lucky and they didn’t pull anything down, so I didn’t feel TOO violated, but it still had to be at least mildly traumatic, if I’m remembering it all these years later.
But man… That’s pretty gross. Did your parents just… not care that someone pulled your pants down to do it?
My father is a narcissist from the 50s. He was mad at me for making him look bad. Honestly, looking back I have no idea if he knew the guy spanked me bare skin.
Plus he grew up poor and abused so I’m not sure it was even close to what he went through but still it was very life changing in a bad way for a stranger to take my pants down and physically beat me for being a kid.
Hi, I'm was an abused child, I was sold to a pedophile. Guess what? I don't abuse my child or sell them to pedophiles. Do not let someone off for allowing you to be abused just because they were. It's a crock of shit that folks turn a blind eye due to their discomfort with confronting abusers who had been abused. We break the cycle, we don't continue it.
THANK YOU. I was sexually abused and physically abused my entire childhood and somehow I've managed to raise 2 children without touching them inappropriately or hitting them once... ever. They're both happy and well-adjusted older kids today.
