Are you crying? I’ll give you a reason to cry. And you knew that if you couldn’t get yourself under control in the next 1 or 2 seconds, you were about to get the living shit beat out of you. Those welts. I don’t think this is common anymore. I never said it, and I only spanked one of my children one time. And I’m still feeling that guilt 20 years later. I’m happy that society is leaving this behind. These young people are so much kinder than my Gen X or our Boomer parents. If we can keep society together for a couple more generations, we may survive.
