That's funny! I started to say, maybe I need to go get a Hickory, but figured you wouldn't know what I was talking about
I'm going to guess you never got wore out with a switch huh? To do the job, it has to be nice, thin and flexible - ohhh that stings on the legs!

OMG! You sound like my mother. I can still hear the whooshing sound the air makes right before it cracks against the back of my leg.

I admit, I was a rotten kid. I got switched, belted & even soap in my mouth A LOT before I got big enough to put my foot down... and that's when the fun really started.

My moms go to whipping tool was the fly swat.
But she had to catch me first. Drat that long hair. .

I’m a perfect example that being whipped with a belt has absolutely no effect whatsoever. I probably deserved them all but I never learned.

Me neither. It only made me stubborn & defiant & gave me a heathy dislike of Dove soap.

How beautiful! He's every color of the sunset.

Thank you! He's a sweetie

Oh boy...I got the belt, the switch, the flyswat and Mom even kept one of those paddle ball paddles! Yep, soap once
I was good, but my brother got me in trouble

I was good one day, but my brother was in trouble, Mom told him to go get a switch (sometimes we could pick our own switch, you tried to get one that wasn't too bad) anyway, he came back with a stick, it was rotten and falling apart...Mom gave him a whack on the back of the leg and that rotten stick broke everywhere. I couldn't help it, I busted out laughing (he did too), that royally ticked her off...SHE went and got a switch and we both got it. It was worth it though, remembering that stick exploding all over the place is still hilarious to me

Ya I thought I'd be smart too and pick one that didn't look too bad. Dad sat there and peeled the bark off until it was a nice thin green thing. I don't know if I learned anything. . but I sure do remember it.

They are looking nice. What does the yellow band mean? They don't look like brothers...

They might not look like brothers but they are.
