Reply #21: i don't remember that, but....

[ldf]

i do remember my maternal grandmother (little mama), who lived with us and helped very much to raise us, made me go get the switch (do you know what that is?) that she would use to punish me. and she said that if i didn't get a good one, she would make me reqret it.

i still love her dearly, long after she is gone. whatever we did, we usually deserved to get that spanking/switching. it was never done vindictively. we were subjected to discipline, and we turned out ok!

but i don't remember having my mouth washed out with soap. of course i never talked dirty. :-)
