Remember the days when some teachers had a wooden paddle hanging on the wall? About 18"x4" and about a 1/2 " thick with some holes drilled through for 'effect'. Not too many kids mouthed off back then.

My mother worked in the office at my jr. high school. I didn't get away with stuff once the day was over.

Usually it was a loss of privileges - ****-whoopin's at home were reserved for particularly egregious offenses to respect such as back-talking. I was pretty much over doing that by then.

I was such a little trouble maker my parents kept a wooden spoon in the car lol. So I am messing with my sister one day and they threaten me with it...I think I have the perfect solution and grab it out of the center console and throw it out the window on the freeway 
.
Then I learned the pain of the belt, Dad always had that with him
Kids need a little fear put in em now days, man, I know those things kept me in line when I was young.

LOL you saw that? I was trying to show how clean the motor was running but I couldn't get the graph right. I was trying to type it out. The guy at the smog station was surprised that the truck seemed to put out 0 emissions.
He even looked under the truck to be sure there wasn't a big hole in the exhaust or something.
