I still remember being told "Dont touch the stove, it's hot..." red hot burner, my smart ass pressed my finger down on it. I never did that again. Picked my burnt fingertip for daaays. I was 4. Good times!
Yes, most likely. But there is definitely a difference. What you and Silo and yes, many of us others might have experienced (abuse) and the type of spanking a loving parent administers. They happen only occasionally and are applied to little bottoms that are naturally padded and can handle a couple of not-too-hard pats. Sometimes they can be a life-saver.
Well shit! My bad. I guess Silo should have mentioned beatings rather than "spankings".
I guess it's my fault for taking Silo's words for their definition. Let me know when this conversation gets back to literal meanings rather than metaphorical.
