Kev. I am a 29YO raised by my grandparents 😂 I stupidly picked the skinniest stick I could find one day - when I say I heard the stick cutting through the air on its way to my ass🤣🤣 I knew it was over with.
The principal Mr Brown at my elementary school had a paddle call the board of education thankfully I was never acquainted with it but I did see it in action yikes!!! 😬
@@Beaconsofresiliencemy mom made a house shoe turn the corner while she was laying in bed. The old school Daniel Green house shoe with the wooden heel. My sister and I still laugh about it 30 yrs later 😂😂
Remember helping my grandmother peel the bark off the 1st switch, because she was artsy and only said she was about to make something..... I legit thought I was bout to learn to weave a basket or something.
My dad had a leather belt, he cut the buckle off and CARVED that part into crescent shape on both sides. It fit perfectly in his hand. We called it the" MEAT EATER". It got lost for years and years my dad made us hunt and hunt for it. Our refrigerator went out and we had to get a new one. Behind the fridge deep down inside the coils covered in dust was the "MEAT EATER". My brother had hid it there. It was back there for about 8 years. 😊😊😊😊 . Thanks big brother, RIH I miss you ❤❤❤
I was raised by my Aunt. She used to have me lay across the bed in my drawers to whoop me. Every whoopin was different. 1) Straight to the point, no talking just fast paced hits 2) Three to six hits between each verbal expression of disappointment... 3) A steady rhythm of hits with one word between each. (IYKYK)
My great grandma had a paddle in the kitchen. She was in her 80s and all she had to do was look at it to make the kids behave. I, thankfully, never saw it get used, but I totally believe she would have. It had holes drilled in it too. lol
My 6th grade science teacher, Mr Wilder, had a paddle just like that. And I can confirm those paddles hurt like hell. The drill holes allow for a more aerodynamic swing.
My father was the middle school principal in the 80s and used to paddle kids. People still come up to me in my hometown grocery store and tell me the stories about being in his office and how they never did that bad thing again.
The fact that I had to go out & examine a switch to determine its thickness & flexibility & I understand the assignment (w/o ever being given a tutorial ) is bonkers.
We was getting beat fr fr full stop 😂 rubber spoons, switches, my mom’s heels, the water hose from outside, the extension cord, rulers, phone cords, hangers, and sometimes just hands if my pop couldn’t find anything else. There was a time in my life where I genuinely thought a belt’s primary function was to be used as a weapon to beat kids. The fact that it could be used for pants was completely coincidental.
That switch was something different. Belts and back braces didn't compare to a springy green switch. I only had novel experiences because i learned quick how good behavior kept those things away from me 😂
FRFR switch, broom, mop, The hose that your granny uses to hook up to the sink and create that kitchen hair. Basically anything she could grab became a belt.. dustpan, microwave, bowls, pots.. anything 😂😂😂
I remember back in 6th grade I lied to my mama about doing math homework for the longest and eventually she found out and beat me with my math book then the belt to make sure I learned a lesson lol.
😂😂😂😂 Being from the South I can remember trying to do the same thing when I was younger with my great aunt. She sent me to get a switch and I bought back the skinniest branch I could find. She told me to go back and get another one and I did it again. She kept saying you think you're smart. This continued a couple more times and just when I thought she had given up I thought I had won. She told me to go get on my knees in the front. While I was waiting I thought it was over with. Little did I know that she had skinned and braided them together and oiled them down and sprinkled cornmeal on them. Let's just say when she did come back with it in her hands I was confused. Worst whipping ever.
Picking your own switch, your own torture device is next level. The kids will never know 😩 Also, making sure your parent hit you with belt no buckle as well.
Once got beat with a hanger, it was the closest thing at hand. My mom’s arm whipped out faster than I could see, grabbed it, and in the follow back swing started cutting my ass. And no I’m not traumatised by any of it, I just look back and laugh and remind her of the punishments she used to dole out when she plays forgetful. Also got whooped by my principal once too, she kept a duck tape wrapped belt she named “Buckleys”, Caribbean ppl know, principal said it tastes awful, but it works 😂.
I did not get beat like that but I was also a child that didnt need it. But hearing that just sounds so abusive and so glad we moved on mostly from that. So many other effective methods of parenting.
I remember when my mom sat me down and told me she could no longer beat me with her hand she had to start beating me with a belt and I cried the whole speech and then I got to beating with a belt😂. My mom got beat with an extension cord, so did my aunts, and my uncle's got beat with brooms, and had to box each other and my grandfather.
Belts, Extension cords, Slippers, my brother was so off the hook he got a Halloween broom once😂. I don't agree with it now at all, but I can say I never went complete left field b/c I was scared🤷🏾
Big spoons, a spatula, a paddle, a stick, a switch, belt, ironing cord, extension cord, really anything that would swing. If you were super hard-headed, you got a can good launched at you. I heard a couple rotory phone stories. Those were girls, there were boys involved.
Bruh the trauma you just brought back into my life...AND I'm PUSHING 50! My mom snatched the chord off of my TV after telling me to get my azz in the tub...politely walked her self into that bathroom and was like 'get out!' That was after getting 'paddled' by the principal for flushing all the lost and found stuff down the toilet at school. I thought my Grandma 'braiding' switches was the worst whooping you could get until that day.😮
My mom had a piece of wood we called "the board " & its only purpose was to beat us with it. She kept it in a drawer & we knew the sound of that drawer opening that we were about to get effed up & would immediately start pleading our case 😮 we coild be on another FLOOR of the house & we could hear that drawer opening!! So many times i tried to hide it but eventually mom would find it or my younger sister would rat me out & i would just get beat more.
Im 40 and back in our day we got beat with brooms, shoes, brushes anything in arms reach! 😂 and then strangers on the street could beat you!! And when ya family find out you got another beating. We are traumatized like shit lmao to this day i dont like fighting
Man one time my grandma told me and my older cousin to go pick out a switch, I looked him in his optics and said I’m running away, this man chased me down and turned me in. I got three different types of ass whoopings and a new opp.
I got paddled by my 1st grade teacher. She had a toy paddle with the rubber ball and string removed. She drew an angry face on the paddle and called it “Mr. Pain”. Teacher: if you misbehave, you have to talk to Mr. Pain
Belts, extension cords, flip flops, plastic bats for the boys, phone cord, occasional broom stick if she cant get what she wanted, church shoes, hangers, hands, brush for the hands if you stole. Punishments was the worst thing ever out of all of that. The physicl was temporry. Punishments lste for weeks and months. Summer punishment was the absolute worst. You cant go anywhere. Yea we got it all. These days these kids are lucky.
The extension cord is too far, but the belt, the purse strap, the houseshoe, the fly swatter, the ruler, all ok. Turned out fine...folks always talking about trauma from getting spanked the trauma is your parent not loving you enough to discipline you. Talking only goes so far....smh.
I love how he commits to saying frrrrr😂
😂😂
"Fr" and "lol" are my favorite😂😂
😂😂
It kills me every time he tries to pronounce the abbreviations
Me too.
Kev. I am a 29YO raised by my grandparents 😂 I stupidly picked the skinniest stick I could find one day - when I say I heard the stick cutting through the air on its way to my ass🤣🤣 I knew it was over with.
Ma'am 😂😂 you tried it! The skinnier the worst 😂😂
Sis 😂😂😂😂 we just knew we had them beat (no pun intended) 😂😅
😂😂😂😂
Mannn that sound is TERRIFYING 😂
The principal Mr Brown at my elementary school had a paddle call the board of education thankfully I was never acquainted with it but I did see it in action yikes!!! 😬
A belt is painful a switch is diabolical ❗️❗️❗️❗️ 😂🤧
Switches off of bushes, shoes, hair brushes whatever was close within reach.
Oh forgot the brush
Girl yes lmao I learned to comb my hair at 8 years old 😂😂😂😂
Boomerang 🪃 clothe hanger. 😂😂around the corner. My mom was determined to get the target. We were amazed. You right anything in reach 😂😂😩🫣
@@Beaconsofresiliencemy mom made a house shoe turn the corner while she was laying in bed. The old school Daniel Green house shoe with the wooden heel. My sister and I still laugh about it 30 yrs later 😂😂

🤭 Sorry to giggle. That's some cold work!
Wow you learned that day
I'm have to apologize to you for how loud I laughed at this😂😂😂😂 forgive me😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Damn
That's so foul 🫢😭😭
That switch was cold!!! My mom would tell me she was getting the switch, and I would straighten up right quickly, cuz nope!!

Hearing them hit them practice swings in the air with the switch and hearing that air make that “ whoosh “ sound was pure terror 😂
The extension cord had to be my worst!!! Im talking bout the thick orange cords for plugging stuff up outside! Racecar tracks too!!
The psychological warfare with picking your switch that you have to get whooped by is diabolical 😂😂😂
The worst was that Hoteheels track. That plastic orange track or that gray hard plastic tract. We never put it down for xmas after that.
You just gave me PTSD 😬😂
FR FR! belts. Shoes. Slippers. Extension cords. Books. If they could use it as a weapon, THEY DID! 😂😂😂😂
Clothes hangers, mops, brooms, belts, the thing for rolling dough, man basically everything 😂
Kev love that word “myriad” lmfao
Belts and switches oh yeah on ya knees with rice! Not many for me but enough to remember 😂😂
Same. When I lived in OKC I got paddled countless times🤦🏽♀️ none of it helped though 👅💃🏼

The lie detector test determined he is telling the TRUTH 😂
High heel shoes, belts with them big Texas sized belt buckles, Enfamil formula cans, anything!! 😂
The fact that I had to go out & examine a switch to determine its thickness & flexibility & I understand the assignment (w/o ever being given a tutorial ) is bonkers.
Those thin switches were the worst😂😂😂

Belts, extension cords, wood spoons, switches, hands(my dad 6’5 290lbs)
Hangers too
FRFR switch, broom, mop, The hose that your granny uses to hook up to the sink and create that kitchen hair. Basically anything she could grab became a belt.. dustpan, microwave, bowls, pots.. anything 😂😂😂
For me, it was whatever my mama got her hands on!😂😂😂
Fur? It stands for Forreal Kev 🤭😂
I remember back in 6th grade I lied to my mama about doing math homework for the longest and eventually she found out and beat me with my math book then the belt to make sure I learned a lesson lol.
Once I hid the belt, was made to find the belt.. then I got a extra spanking for hiding it.🤦🏾♀️

I was getting beat with everything. 😂😂😂😂
Belt, shoes, and good old fashion switch. Got hit with rulers by a teacher. Man...we went through it 😢.
Picking your own switch, your own torture device is next level. The kids will never know 😩 Also, making sure your parent hit you with belt no buckle as well.
Switches, bamboo, electric cards . Bamboo was easy to dodge most of the time. The good old days. Pain receptors are strong.
Damn I thought I was only one got the phone cord...that MF hurt!!! Be whistling thru the air 😭
I’m having all kinds of flashbacks 😂😂😂
Belts, hands, rolled up newspapers...
I got a whooping with The KC Star before! My auntie that never whooped ANYBODY, spanked me with the Sunday newspaper😅😂
Hangers. Fly swatters. Switch. Shoe. Phone cord. Basically anything within reach

Shout out Buckley's, my sinuses cleared up just reading this 😂
Not Buckleys 😂
That brown extension cord was NOOOOOO JOKE
It’s kids still getting beat with belts and switches. 🤯
Hot wheels track, slippers, large wooden spoons, we got beat with everything lol
Belts, extension cords, and switches!
Wooden spoons and slippers too. Oh and can’t forget the non-dominant hand.
NIIIKKKAAA THIN😵😵 Naw mane Thick.. like a Branch, Branch 😂😂😂😂😂
Had to send this to my younger siblings
My momma beat me with a hanger once (I fully deserved it 😂) and her new husband moved out! He was scared!🤣🤣🤣
Yep all dat!! The whole community could have at it.
Switch, belt, extension cord, a shoe, a pan😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Belts, belt buckets, switches, shoes, name your weapon
Wire handled fly swatters were surprisingly painful. Weight lifting belt was surprisingly not painful at all.
The broom, machette, pots, pans, basically anything they could get their hands on 😂😂😂😂😂
Shiiiit as a kid, i could have been signed by Nike with all those check marks 😂😂😂
😂 I remember trying to avoid whoopings by getting in the shower or faking sleep and it never worked!!
I did not get beat like that but I was also a child that didnt need it. But hearing that just sounds so abusive and so glad we moved on mostly from that. So many other effective methods of parenting.

My 3rd grade teacher taped two rulers together and tore the palm of our hands up. I'll never forget it
That extension cord wasn’t nobody’s joke. That black woman took the thug out me quick. I’ll still flench til this day when she raise her hand
Whatever was closest and my mom told the teachers they could as well😅.
Fly swatters!!! The plastic piece comes off and you’re getting beat with a thin metal bar. Thicker than a wire hanger.

Yep Kevin not lying kids stayed inline though.
My mom used to throw forks & knives 😮
They can still paddle in some school districts in Texas
Dr. Scholl sandals
Paddled in Mississippi with wood ting
The closest object is what I got whooped with 😂
1.extension cord
2.Belt buckle
3. Piece of tree
4. Jump rope for ❤
Brooms, pot spoons, slippers really anything that was at hand
I knew it was finna be traumatic

Extension cords, hangers, fan belts, two switches peeled back to the white meat braided together and dipped in water 😢...
Belts, shoes, kitchen spoons, hangers. Do I need to continue
Wooden spoon to the hand 😩
2000 my grandma didn’t have the belt in reach so used the vacuum cord
Hot wheels plastic tracks, lime green with orange writing on it, she doubled up on the tracks
I remember the times was when my mom's use to smack me and my brothers in the grocery store but a switch was the worse though
Maneee… lol 😂
Man one time my grandma told me and my older cousin to go pick out a switch, I looked him in his optics and said I’m running away, this man chased me down and turned me in. I got three different types of ass whoopings and a new opp.
Anyone else get it with the plastic paint stirrer with the wholes in it? 😮💨
Switches are the worst 😂😂
When we got a switch we had to peel it til you see that green inner side
I got the switch and if I didn’t get one springy enough, I got a second whipping.
I got paddled by my 1st grade teacher. She had a toy paddle with the rubber ball and string removed. She drew an angry face on the paddle and called it “Mr. Pain”.
Teacher: if you misbehave, you have to talk to Mr. Pain
The weapon of choice in my home was the wooden spatula. Left bruises on my back end for days at a time.
Brush hanger broom basically anything close
That belt is in no comparison to those mulberry switches…Especially if it’s 3 braided together. Just ask my 103 year old Grandma.

Nah, being wet. Broski got beat right after his shower. I can still hear it like it was yesterday. Pisses me off every time I think about it.
