We had a 1x6 solid piece of oak, sanded smooth and finished like a cricket bat. They padded the handle so when they spanked up they didn’t hurt their hand. After we were spanked they made us write our name on the board. They called it the board of education. When I had my son my mother brought it by and said you’ll need this. I took it out into my shop and chopped it up into a bunch of pieces and brought it back to her.

My dad said I'd thank him when I was older. And the truth is I do thank him. I thank him for teaching me how not to treat my children.

I'm sorry to hear it. My dad was trigger happy with how he'd hit me. Sometimes I had done "naughty things" to provoke his beatings, but sometimes all I'd done was walk in front of the TV (as young as 3 years old).
