Re: A Spanking Paddle
And the picture of him and his son and the paddle...his son looks well detached (I wonder why)
edited to fix a typo, that was rather funny...

Re: A Spanking Paddle
How sad! Do you see how big and thick those things are??!! I couldn't imagine a child being whacked with one of those. I can't believe those appointment slips either, arghhh!

Re: A Spanking Paddle
It looks like a paint stirrer. I cannot imagine using one on a teenager.

Re: A Spanking Paddle
If we know the general location, this one would be one to call CPS on. . . .. .. Or, bring it to someone's attention, somehow. . .. "red flag" it, like they do the other icky sites. . ..

Re: A Spanking Paddle
My friend's family had one of these growing up, on which was inscribed, "I Love You."

*nods* Since we stopped spanking, I've been able to see how--even though I dearly loved my children and was motivated by that love, however misguided--spanking was NEVER respectful. |

Re: A Spanking Paddle
My father got angry with me when I was 16 years old. Got out the saw and plywood and cut a paddle pretty close to that shape. Then he drilled holes in it, made me sand so I wouldn't get a splinter and proceeded to beat me with it. The entire process was long. He had plenty of time to think and know what he was doing. It hurt me so bad to sit at school the next several days. I was completely black and blue with nice circles from the holes. Told me I needed an attitude ajustment. It was the beginning of my rebellion. It pushed me over the edge. After that, I really felt, what more could they do to me? It's a passive aggressive nightmare. They make you connect love with punishment.
He still will tell you he did it because he loved me. It's so hard for me to grasp this idea even to this day. Okay, I am crying at the little girl who had no voice or opinion back then. Thank goodness I have a husband that does not believe in spanking. Maybe that's how people did it years ago, but now we know better. And the boy in the picture....yeah, that's how I would have looked to...."please don't make me stand here with you". So sad indeed.

Re: A Spanking Paddle
How .
I am glad that is illegal here, whatever other problems we may have. (UK) I was tempted to leave a comment, may still do, but I don't think he even responds to them.

Re: A Spanking Paddle
I'm totally creeped out by the fact that the paddle says, "Love Joey". Sick.
