Real punishment should be methodical. There was a reason I started with a cold switching to start, followed by the cane, before taking her over my knee for a hand spanking. She had to know that there would be no warm ups. She had to know that because of her behavior. There would be no leniency. When I saw those welts and stripes form one on top of the other…it was then I knew is was time to take her over my knee for her scolding and hand spanking.
