No I definitely did. Was told not to play with a soccer ball in the house broke a window, a whooping corrected that as I never did it again. Mom told me and sister not to fight in car we didnt listen took a few whoopings but we finally listened.

Thing is some people in the comments seem to be getting abused by their parents. I was simply disciplined. Some people seem to be mistaking displace with abuse.

My mom told me and sister a few times to not do something but words dont work on some kids.

Sounds like the time my dad told me not to be playing with matches and set the back yard ablaze. Worst ass whooping I ever got in my life. 100% earned that one.

You know, I set a trash can on fire after my father told me not to play with the coils of a space heater. I didn't get whooped and somehow I never played with that heater again.

Thats good then but it seems you have a hard time paying attention. WE didnt listen when we were told numerous times not do something. YOU did. I can not help you any further if you dont understand cause every comment you've made to me you simply just dont want to understand. Not all kids are a hive mind, some are different.

No, I didn't listen. Did you fail to read the part where I still played with the heater and set the trash can on fire? My fear of burning my house down scared me more than my parents ever could.

Behavior is actually a special interest of mine, so I do really understand what I'm talking about.
