Subject: Re: Background Author: Beverly [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 13:03:04 09/27/12 Thu In reply to: Bob E. 's message, "Re: Background" on 04:50:04 09/27/12 Thu Bob, it sounds like you have done a remarkable job living with your disabilities and helping others. I pray you will continue to live a full and active life. With Chris, I think one reason we have become "stricter" over the last few years is that we want him to grow up to be a responsible and independent person. We know he's going to face a lot of challenges, but we hope we're teaching him to work hard and reach his goals. The cerebral palsy affects his motor skills. His walking and coordination are affected. He takes physical therapy and occupational therapy to work on skills like feeding and dressing himself. I have to brag on him a little bit... since he was mainstreamed into regular classes two years ago, Chris has been on the B-honor roll at school. He's a very smart boy but his physical limitations work against him. I imagine you can relate to that. You're correct that we started with hand spankings when Chris was 8. We switched to the paddle when he turned 13. That's actually when he started complaining about being spanked bare-bottom. I think he believes the paddle will hurt less over shorts or underwear. I don't think he's embarrassed. I help him dress in the morning and assist with his bath and shower. He's not shy when I have to undress him for a bath. In fact, we have frequent arguments because he wants me to help him and I think he should be doing more for himself. But, as you said, now that Chris is past puberty it's probably time to let him start wearing briefs or shorts, especially when I spank him over the knee. My husband and I are still discussing it. He thinks it's time too, so I'm going to try paddling over underwear next time. Thanks for all your input, Bob. I'm not on the computer much but I'll let you know how it goes with Chris and look forward to chatting again. Bev [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
