Subject: Re: Advice Author: Justin [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 04:07:52 12/06/20 Sun In reply to: Carrie to Justin 's message, "Re: Advice" on 03:20:55 12/06/20 Sun Hmm...very interesting Carrie. It sounds like a very close community. Like I said, I am sure that this community is strongly grounded in Christian values and traditions. I bet there is a strong emphasis on teaching the Word of God in your church there. It is also likely a community where you know a good portion of the town. I guess also since it is such widely accepted that most parents still spank even their older teenage kids, then no kid needs to feel like they are being singled out. I wonder, would it be harder for you to accept being spanked if you didn't live in a community where it was the norm? If you lived in a community where most of your friends were being grounded and you were the only one being spanked, would it be more embarrassing and harder to accept then? I know that getting spanked is no fun regardless, however there has to be some comfort knowing it happens to most of the youth in your community. But tell me, would a parent be looked down upon in your community if they did not spank their kids? Since it is so widely accepted there, would it be viewed as going against the community values? Although this board is all about spanking, so that is primarily what we all talk about on here, I have to believe that your life is full of so many good things too Carrie. You are smart intelligent and funny, I do believe that. I also have to believe your mom loves all of you a lot. Although maybe harsher than what Berryblue and I have experienced or are privy too, I have to strongly believe your mother's discipline is designed to help you become the best person you can be. Honestly you are very fortunate to have such a loving and close family and such a close community!! I too love my family a lot. Things are definitely different here then they are where you live and I guess that is not a bad thing. I have to believe we are all placed on this earth, where we live for a reason. Hopefully if you ever decide not to live in this community after you move out and start your own life, you will remember what you have learned and the values and discipline you have learned will stay with you. Thanks for replying to me Carrie. I have missed you. I know this may not be a return to you talking to me. I don't know if you are still angry with me or if you have forgiven me yet or not. And I don't want you to keep chatting with me if it will result in you getting into trouble with your mother. That is the last thing I want. Regardless it was good to hear from you and I am glad you are doing well!! Hope we can keep chatting!! I promise to be respectful and honest with you going forward. Ask me anything you want. But if you cannot keep talking to me, I understand and still wish you all the best. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

All the kids that I know are spanked at least up in to their high school graduation. I have friends that are in college living at home and are still spanked. Our Pastor is a well educated man, and a very religious man. He feels that as long as the child is living under there Parents roof and are supported by them, they must obey their Parents, and if not, they should be disciplined as a child, which is spanking. That is how Mom is raising us. You are right, I do not like getting my bare bottom blistered with the paddle. I know she only does it because she wants me to be a respectable woman. I know she hates to spank us and I know she loves all of us, just as we all love her. Now to your question. I am not sure how I would react if we lived in a large community and was still getting spanked. I am not sure if Mom would be raising us the same way as she is now living in a big community. I was never mad at you Justin, but just very disappointed in you and in some ways I still am. I am only answering you now because of the nature of this post and question.
