At age 23, I cannot account for how my future self will react to my child misbehaving. Growing up, I was spanked by my mother. Most of my spankings were endured alongside my brother, seeing as how we were partners in crime. As one gets older, however, spankings tend to lose their effect; so, by our teen years, they had all but stopped. Still, like for every child I would imagine, there were a few whippings that went down in the history books of our memories. When we were toddlers, my mother was very lenient; she understood we were still learning right from wrong and testing boundaries.
My mother and father were very strict and spanked me until I got married when I was There were quite a few incidents I could discuss but I will talk about one. I moved away from home briefly when I was This was mostly to escape the rules and punishments, I also wasn't getting along with my sister who was 15 at the time. The morning I left my sister and I had gotten into a fight and my mother took her side again. I smarted off to my mom and she grabbed my arm and took me to my bedroom.
