The belt works wonders, it straightened my ass up a time or two.

You can tell by the tone, she is pissed. I think they heard her in Oklahoma

My Mom would yell, and send me to my room...no radio, read in silence.
When you heard Pops truck pull in the driveway, it was time to get right with God. If lucky, Mom would have down shifted, cooled off a bit. If you heard Mom in the kitchen, still pissed off while telling Pops...oh shit!
Pops had usually left before sun up, and got home after sundown. He was in no mood to deal with me, or a pissed off wife. I can still hear those footsteps coming up the hall, and the creak of the doorknob and hinges...

Good times!

We did the same thing with my moms station wagon a few times. Skipped school and joy ride all day.
If dad had ever found out I would not be here today…no ifs ands or buts he would have beaten all of us to death.
When dad took the belt to us it was best to just take it and keep your mouth shut. He rarely went to the belt, but when he did it made all previous activity inconsequential.
My brother was incapable of silence, so after the initial round he would keep protesting which only enraged dad even more.

My parents were spankers. Well mainly my mom. My dad had other methods or he’d be judge and jury and let my mom carry out the punishment.

My cousins got “the spoon”. It was classic to witness. The kids would misbehave and the mom would announce “get the spoon” and the wailing and crying would start. They’d bring her the spoon, she’d wack them good and send them to their rooms.

Spare the rod, spoil the child. Many think it’s child abuse (and it can be a fine line) but physical punishment does wonders for upbringing.

My dad would lecture us….

and the longer we … Ok, I said I don know, I wasn’t thinking …
the longer that lecture took! He was looking for 100 % feed back compliance and I was able to produce like 5%….

I remember thinking this would be so much quicker if he had a belt….
but
Thankful he didn’t

Usually, a sibling would want to go second, hoping the whooping arm got tired. In your case, going first may have been a better strategy;)

Too funny. With me it was my mom’s trusty paint stirring stick. But God Bless her soul, many times she “forgot” where it was. Message WAS delivered nonetheless.

Lol same.

I used to crack up laughing at my mom trying to spank me. All 4’11 of her. When my dad came home, all bets were off. 100% directed the way I acted. Always thought of the consequences.
Really damn funny. Exactly the same. At least i knew to fake like it hurt. My younger brother would laugh at her or just grab the spoon. My dad worked graveyard. We had to sleep on the ass whopping. In reality they weren’t that bad. Absolutely positive i deserved everyone i got.

My mom was more the disciplinarian and dad would provide backup. Dad was pretty rambunctious himself as a kid so he was generally pretty understanding/cool. When they went out for a night they typically came home around 12-12:30. One night (@15yrs) I decided to cruz the 1971 Ford 3/4 ton truck around town. I hit a couple parties, had a couple beers, little buz. I rolled home @ 11:30 figured I'd b good. Ohhh fuuuuck, that awefull feeling when you pull up and see they're already home. The longest walk of shame into the house. They were actually pretty calm about it and they didn't seem to know I was buzzed. Of course I stayed on the opposite side of the room and went straight to my room as soon as they were done.
Dodged a bullet luckily. I was on my best behaviour for a long while afterward, l did'nt want to give them a reason jack my shit up.
Now I wonder what the conversation was like before I got home. Was there a plan, or did they just go off the cuff?
Lol

In this more civilized part of the world, beating kids in schools has been outlawed since 1958 and beating kids at home has been outlawed since 1979.

I learned when mom came after me with the broom to take a few whacks. If I managed to dodge her she got pissed told dad, the results were far worse than the broom.

Spoon, belt, tree branch, hand…..I’ve had it all 🤣. There was no time outs or anybody worried about hurting my feelings. It was solved in about .5 seconds with no warning.

I hated it when I was a kid and I thought my parents were assholes but today I’m thankful for my upbringing. I am nowhere near as brutal as my parents, but my boys still know what spankings are. I don’t put up with shit still. Thankfully, my wife and I are on the same page and try to raise our boys more old-school style. I’ll do everything I can to make sure I don’t raise entitled pussies 🤣

I I had taken any one of my parents vehicles at 14, I'd be wearing a head stone.
I used to take without permission my Moms 64 GTO and cruise the sschool and take it to the street races when they were on vacation. Mom found out and thankfully my Dad pulled her off for me or she might have killed me. She asked for th ekeys back. I gave them to her but unbeknownst to her I had many more sets. Mom didnt raise a dummy. :)

Don’t know where that is.
My last school paddling (by the principle) was in 5th grade. About 1971 or so?

A paddle was shown to me as a warning but not used probably around 70. 😁
Principal drug my buddy and i to the office one time. Dont remember what we did. Paddled my best buddy in front of me. Told me if i kept it up i was next. 1985. 6th grade.
Mom rarely broke out the belt. It was always go get the belt and go to your room and wait for your dad.

Seems mom's in the 50's and 60's weren't concerned about the long term psychological affects of us male kids learning to dread our father's coming home from work each day and it's association with pain ---- "Look, Dad's home, ahhhhhhhh f*ck no" :oops:🤣

Then those infamous lying ass words ---- " Son, this is going to hurt me more than you" ---- Bullshit, not even close. 😖

I don't know about Mother of the Year, at the end of the video she said it wasn't the 14 y/O's first time joyriding. It almost feels like it was cooked up by the siblings.

Smacking the kid with a belt isn't working... 🤔

My little brother did the same thing with my car when he was about that age, but it ended with my car on its lid. Needless to say he didn't do that again... 🤣

Here's how smart my dad was, and how dumb my brother was...

My brother was in scouts, and my dad was the scout leader. They needed to do a wood working project for a patch. Dad's idea, make a wooden paddle.... So all the kids made wooden paddles to bring home. Holes were drilled in them to increase speed.

My folks kept that paddle on the wall heater next to my room, I can still hear that sound of the paddle being picked up. I've never forgiven my brother.

My little brother took my '68 F250 for a joyride when I was at work one time. It had 2 gas tanks but I took one out and left the switching stuff in it. I always switched it over to the second tank when I parked it, it would only go about a half mile on what was in the carb and would shut off🤣. Well he didn't know what I did and on my way home I see my truck on the side of the road and knew exactly what happened but didn't know it was my brother until I got home 🤣🤣

Even in High School....long long ago, if you got too mouthy the teacher sent for a gym instructor. Took you out of class and got a tuneup in the hall. Seemed to cure the mouth issue.

My dad let me pick the belt once. He always used a 2.5in belt and that fukr hurt, I decided a skinnier belt wouldn't hurt as much🤨. Well I was wrong😳🤣🤣 and I learned a lesson that day, even asked dad if he could get a wider belt 🤣🤣

In High School, we were shitfaced and my buddy decides to take his dads F250 for a ride.

He pulls up behind a grocery store on the corner of Chapman and Hewes in Orange. Behind the store is like giant rolling concrete whoops.

He had us get out and hold his beer…

He makes a few runs, gong faster and faster each time and getting more and more air.

Then he loses control, truck flies onto Hewes and he t-bones some sedan.

Cops arrive in milliseconds and we were outta there.

Buddy got hooked-up and spent the night in jail.

You’d think that would’ve been a wake-up call for the rest of us…you’d think wrong 😂
