This is the continuation of the last chapter it also has a bit of anecdotes and points of view. Warming contains a spanking, hopefully you will learn how to give a child a proper one through this, and if your parents aren't spanking you right, maybe they can learn from it. I mean that in a good way.

The Rod Of Love

"Dustin, are you alright? I said are you alright?"

She had to ask twice before I really heard her and answered and that was only after she put her hand on my shoulder. It startled me, "Aaah oh! Huh? Uh, oh uh yeah I guess, I guess so. Oh all those people, I feel so badly for them, that monster. Who would do such an awful thing, why?" I felt so bad for not telling her everything in the first place. Now for keeping this new info, I just figured out, but it is best I think to keep it a secret. Maybe just wait on that one, after all, I could be terribly wrong. But the gun to my head, sigh, sure it wasn't lying, but still I felt guilty, for not telling mom the whole truth, but I had my reasons why I shouldn't tell her, just yet. I will, that's a promise I swear to myself and to God, I will tell her, as I said, probably sometime after the baby is born or better yet when Gordon's in jail. Then it dawned on me, why my guilty feelings of course I almost let myself get away with it, mom too. "Mom, you owe me a spanking. I lied to my little brother, remember. And, I want him to watch, so Beau knows what to expect, that you mean business. I love you mom. You owe me a spanking. After all, I broke the rule. I'm not ever allowed to lie." I wisely said it in French, I wasn't sure what the two coppers might have to say about this, after all, some people do have very strong feelings against spanking, especially someone my age. They might argue I was too old to be spanked, or cry it's abuse, it's not, not at all, it's a very loving thing, you'll see. It's painful, yes, of course, but that had to play its part in the debt paying part, after all, however it is, always, a very loving thing. I respect the household rules. And I broke one of the big rules, one that will always warrant a spanking, lying.

It always went like this, asking about, and me, confessing to, my wrongdoing, helping me, by making me aware of it, so I can then own up to my wrongdoing. What did you do wrong, I was asked, usually, unless like in this case, I already knew, so I know exactly what I did wrong, why I was getting a spanking, or other disciplinary action - I didn't always get spanked you know - so there was never any bitterness, ever. I know that I'm very dearly loved, adored, and cherished, aside from lately of course, with dad's death and all, I was always told and shown this.

With the exception of needed, immediate, correction, of swats and then a lecture, it always went like this. The preparation for the paddling, the pants are down or off, it was usually given over my underwear, sometimes bare bottomed, it just all depends, on who was doing it, and what the offence was, and how many spankings I was getting. Bare bottomed was usually when I was younger, or like this one time, I deliberately lied, and got caught in it. I tried to lie my way out of it, to save my butt, literally. Well it didn't work and I learned the hard way never to do that again because I was paddled much harder, than usual, and bare bottomed, for my safety. It was to both increase the sting and more importantly, to assess how hard the strikes were, that it didn't go overbroad. Now that I was older, for modesty's sake, I'm usually in my skivvies. I was always prepared for my spanking, usually, as I mentioned with exceptions either a training swat or something warranting an immediate correction to save my life, because at the time I didn't know any better or deliberately disobeying and endangering myself. You know the kind I mean, right? Like say when I was young reaching out to something hot, or dangerous, when a verbal rebuke fell upon deaf or defying ears, or doing something stupid, foolish, and life-threatening, like running out onto the street, you get the picture.

Yes in in my younger days I was rebellious, and ha, ha, and I admit I foolishly tried to get out of my spankings I righty had coming. But they always outlasted me, and added a few extra swats, for the rebellion, and disobedience, but that was when I was a tot and testing my bounders and trying to outwit my parents, it stopped when I was a very young child, because by then I knew the drill, no rebelling just submission to the correction. With the exceptions above, for a quick swat or two, the position is always over the knee, while my hands cupped over and protecting my privates. It served 3 purposes, when I was over the knee in that position, my protection obviously being number one priority. Being a guy, you know it hurts to get hit in the groan area. Second, it was showing that I'm submissive to my parent's authority, and ready for my spanking. Third, it also made sure that my hands didn't get in the way, so I wasn't smacked in the wrong spot or moved around too much to throw the aim off to my bottom. A dowel or a wooden spoon was usually always used, with some exceptions. Hands are made for loving playing and praying, not hurting and it was as a neutral object. It stung which was the purpose of the spanking but never ever broke the skin and never left lasting marks aside from some reddening from the swats that lasted no more than an hour or two.

Sometimes, before, and or sometimes after, I was given a talking to, about my bad behavior or actions and what I could do in the future to avoid it, and made sure I knew exactly why I had gotten the spanking to reiterate that I sinned. Always, always, after, that, I was forgiven, the slate was clean, and if it was possible to do, a chance to redeem myself, to make or put right, or do what I should have done in the first place. Then came the best part of all, I always, always, get lots of hugs, kisses, and cuddle time, and there in that time I was usually prayed over, and reassured of my parent's love. I loved those times the best, the debt is all paid, the air is cleared, the fog and smog lifted, and all is well and bright again. The closeness, and the reassurances, of their unconditional love, and extra love I received, in those times, those for me are the sweetest moments and memories for me, and I'm sure my parents. I know why my parents spank me, and you should too, now, just like God, they do it, because they love me so much.

"A spanking, for lying, you're right I do owe you a spanking. Thank you for reminding me," I smiled, through my heart's pain, it hurt that he remembered, but I'm so very proud of him. I really did not want to do this, I was afraid, terrified, I would hurt him more by spanking him, I just couldn't bring myself to do what I knew I had to. Dustin was beaten and bruised enough already so in a way I guess I hoped I would forget and so would he, just this one time, but, God knows, there are no exceptions. I could argue the case the beating more than made up for the spanking Dustin earned, but I was feeling a loving rebuke stinging my heart. He had a spanking coming, no questions, or arguments. There's a huge vast difference between what I do to discipline, and well Skip too, when he was alive, and what Gordon did to my baby. I needed a spanking reminder from God, through Dustin, I had a job to do, to raise my children, to be right, to be upright righteous children of the Lord; good contributing citizens to the world, who has and show respect. So thank You Lord, for that reminder. I'm his parent, the only one he, they, have now, and as much as this is hurting me right now, I have a job to do, I love my baby so much.

There was more to it than just that, though, than just lying to Beau; I can read my son like an open book sometimes. I knew, I know, I overheard Dustin in the restroom, about how Gordon held a gun to his head. How he's so worried about the baby and me; that it will stress me out too much and therefore it would jeopardize our health, if I knew right now. He's so sweet to worry. I can honor that concern, and him not wanting to tell me, right now, I really can. Yes, I honestly would worry I know I would have if I was told later, and stress out. I know that he will tell me, so I'll use this as a trust exercise, and will bring that up, when he does tell me, and if not, well then I will deal with it and him, firmly, then, I will hold him to his words. But in the meantime, sigh, yes, as much as I didn't want to do it, on this one occasion, I owed Dustin a spanking, for lying to Beau. And maybe a few light extra taps to make him feel better for not telling me the whole truth, right now.

How did I find out? Two reasons really. The first was, Beau had needed the potty after Dustin mentioned it. I was also escorted into the lady's restroom where I had no choice but to put Beau on the toilet, he was fine with it, and went, he didn't have a problem peeing in the toilet at all; well; until the toilet's auto flush, flushed loudly, and he screamed out. But before that, he was fine, especially since I was, also sitting on the toilet with him between my legs so he wouldn't fall in. I came to find out later what we did with Dustin wasn't all that uncommon and that it was one of many EC positions others not just Skip and I use to potty him. It's also convenient if you need to go pee too. I had overheard everything, he told that cop; because the washrooms were being remodeled and are beside one another. With some of the ceiling panels taken out, I easily overheard him in there.

I wanted to be angry; I didn't know what to think about that. But I stepped back and took my mother's advice, to try to put myself in someone else's, in this case, my son's shoes, before reacting to something. If I were Dustin, how would I think and feel, or if it were me, if it was my mother who was pregnant, and I had just told her about a criminal holding me at gunpoint, threating to pull the trigger? Well, I know my mother Betty would be freak out, for sure, first thing, the screaming and yelling, and mom probably wanting to leave town, or try keep their child safe, in any way possibly, overly protected. I know for sure I would do the same. I'm a lot like my mother in that way too. I think both my mother and I would keep him inside until this whole thing blew over, and Dustin, would hate that, he needs to be outdoors, now I know the reasons why, Nature hobby, and at his age, he needs his freedom. What shocked me the most was his reason why, behind it. Dustin is very concerned about me, and more importantly his unborn sibling. Too much stress, too much worry, yes, is not a good thing, bless him for that. All right, I'll pretend I never heard that, and try to treat him fairly, and more like an adult. He's earned it.

Early on we found out grounding is the worst possible scenario for him and considering that he doesn't have friend, it's really a pointless punishment unless he's ground inside the house. Ha, ha, no, it doesn't work at all really, we've tried it and failed miserably; he even argued with us and was right. 'Really what's the point, I feel terrible that I disappointed you and I hate you for doing this, besides, it's just stupid, I don't have any friends, what are you ground me from, not being able to go outside, and go play? The bus will be here in a few minutes to take me to school. Do you know what that means? I'm going to go to school and guess what, I'll get to go play outside, you stupid fools.' Yes, it was a foolish pointless punishment, grounding, it just doesn't work for Dustin at all, and he gets very bitter over it, and worse yet, we found, more rebellious, angry, and gets himself into more trouble, and he repeats the vicious cycle over again. That's not the point you are trying to make in disciplining a child to correct a bad behavior at all, if it makes the child just act worse than before the incident, you initially disciplined him or her for, in the first place. The Bible even warns about this sort of thing, that you are not to embitter your child. So being grounded is terrible for the both of us, and is a pointless punishment. Not only does the child suffer, and become more embittered but we have to suffer too. So what did we do, well, we agreed that he was right, so we dropped the grounding, and spanked him, and sent him to school, in a very happy mood! I don't think I'll ever use grounding again, with Dustin, not unless the situation really calls for it, this doesn't. He already feels bad enough, I'm sure, being a bad remodel for Beau. So, it's time to show some love, time for a spanking.

"What's going on," Billy was the first to ask.

"Where are you going?"

"What were you saying?" Now Billy and likewise Jason were left scratching their heads and wishing they knew French, as this could be important, and soon followed behind them shortly after they left the room.

The first stop was in the kitchen to find the wooden spoon, since I had no idea where the dowel is right now to use that. I personally prefer the dowel to the wooden spoon. "Since I have no idea with the move where the dowel is I'll have to use this," pulling out the wooden mixing spoon.

"Works for me, you can use the handle end of the spoon on me if you like."

"Sigh, yeah I guess so, guess I'll have to. We'll see."

The first assumption could have been one of just after making something to eat, or drink, but when Jason caught Brandi leaving the kitchen with the wooden spoon in hand and Dustin following right behind her, well, it clicked. "What…? She's not…? She's not about to do what…I think she is, is she?!" Billy just shook his head at Jason. Billy was an occasional spanker, when the need arose for it for certain things, his kids did, that warranted a spanking, rather than other methods. So he never dares to muddle in the affairs of others, who spanked, not unless the situation called for it. If, Dustin was freaking out, and or screaming, or making a big deal over this, then yes, Billy would have stepped in, to carefully assess the situation. But, he wasn't, freaking out, he was calm, and Jason was making too much over a situation that was both calm, in control, and obviously, in a very loving manner, and mostly, it really wasn't any of their business. After all, the law does state that used for discipline in a controlled loving manner, reasonable spanking is permeated. "Bill, we have to stop this, this is crazy; she can't beat a 13 plus year old teenager…or worse yet, the little toddler."

"Jason, it's none of our business, and it's not a beating, or child abuse, it's discipline. I'm sure whatever the reason for the spanking, it's a good one. A good parent won't ever spank a child without a good reason." Billy tried, by firmly holding Jason's arm, to try to prevent Jason from storming on in there, to stop Jason from doing something stupid, that would only ultimately end up with him just embarrassing himself over it. But Jason hardheaded as always was having none of it, obviously, as he wrench pulled his arm back out of Billy's disciplining grip, and marched right over there, brazenly, to try to stop a crime of 'obvious abuse' in progress. Billy only put a hand to his face already feeling a bad headache coming on, as he sighed out, and shook his head, then waking slowly behind, wanting nothing of what was about to take place in there, as soon as be barged his way in. Nope, all Billy wanted was a new partner, who wasn't so dumb, oblivious, or crass. Keep that up and he was liable to get himself fired or worse hurt or killed. "It's none of your business, it's not yours, or anyone else's business. It's just a loving parental discipline, I can guarantee you, that is all it is," he said quietly but firmly.

Despite the necessary move, there was always the up, bright, and plus side of things, like this. "I'm gonna love it here, I got a bigger room, and a much better bed, a top of the line one at that," he said and flopped backwards onto it, intending to stretch relax on it for a few seconds before they got to the spanking business, but, the bruises, "ow, unh."

Brandi winced and sucked air through her teeth, God those bruises Gordon gave him. Brandi wanted to hurt Gordon so bad now, for what he did to her baby. How did he sleep at night now? "Are you all right?"

"I'll live, hurts a bit, I shouldn't have flopped on the bed." Sitting on his bed Brandi put Beau down for the talk, before the spanking could start. "So, Beau, I'll bet you're wondering why you're in here. Well, it's because I lied to you, and you knew I lied to you, and right after mommy told you not to lie. I wronged you, it's only right, I feel, that you should watch me get my spanking, all right. That way you know mommy means it, when she says you get a spanking for lying. Also, it's for later on so you know how it goes, what to expect, what to do, when you do something that deserves a spanking, so there's no surprises. Oh, and a little piece of advice from your big brother, don't ever try to run away, or hide, because resistance, just leads to you getting more added spanks, for the disobedience, and not complying to what mommy says. Now unless it's a quick swat or two to my bottom, when I get a spanking it's always over the knee."

Sighing, "I don't even know, if I can…let me see where they are again." She helped him get his shirt off and right then Jason found them and barged right in to stop this nonsense 'beating'.

"Stop right there, before I arrest you for beating your child!"

"Beating," Brandi and Dustin say.

"Idiot," was all Billy had to say to his partner.

"What the hell are you doing, why do you have his shirt off, you sick pervert? Ugh, that's it, you're both under…"

"Jason, no, if you don't stop, I'll arrest you. I've really had it with your stupidity and nonsense. It's people like you who get good people like them in trouble with law and worse yet, Social Services, not to mention breaking families apart."

"Damn straight, that's exactly what happens to people like us who obey what the Word of God commands us to do, you fool. Definition of a beating, what Gordon gave me," and turned right around showing off his bruises and took off his pants and showed those too. "To maliciously cause harm to a person, by punching and hitting, usually leaving injuries, like bruises, bleeding, and broken bones, you get the idea I think, if not, you're a fool. Hitting, slapping someone usually in the face or other areas in anger usually with intent to cause a person injury or harm. Spanking used by a loving caring parent, as a form of discipline to an erring child and yes I'm still a child under the law until I turn 18, to correct a child. A measured amount of pain applied to the buttocks, with a hand, a wooden, spoon, paddle, or what my mom prefers, a dowel, but can't find it right now. Other things can be used like a slipper or a cane or belt. Even a child Beau's age that's never got one, knows the difference. Beau, tell the foolish police officer here in your own words the difference between a spanking and a beating."

His vocabulary right now was very limited but he articulated it quite well. Pointing to some of the bruises on Dustin's legs and tummy, "Ow, ow, mal, mal ow, bad mal ow." Beau took the wooden spoon and smacked Dustin's bottom once and said, "No bad, no mal," and toddled over to mommy and gave her the wooden spoon. He finished with, "Mama, no mal ow Dusty, and me, no mal ow Dusty." He finished with looking up and pointing "Dada say no mal, ow; ow it ow, yes, but no mal, love."

Brandi and Dustin were stunned and amazed, "Out of the mouth of a baby, out of the mouth of a toddler." Billy nodded smiling, "Out of the mouths of babes, yes. Out of the mouths of children and infants, You have ordained praise to silence Your foes. I'm sure whatever the reason, you deserve the spanking, and I'm sure there's also a good reason for why your shirt is off. Enlighten my idiot partner here, won't you please?"

"I lied to my little brother and set a bad example for him, and right after mom told him not to lie because next time he will get a spanking."

"That's certainly an offence worthy of spanking in my house too. And I'm sure there's also a good reason why his shirt is off, what is it?"

"I took his shirt off to check for where his bruises are, because normally, I spank over the knee, but this time, looking where his bruises are, that won't be happening. In all honesty, this is the one time I really wished he had forgotten. I don't want to cause him any more pain than he is already in, but…"

"So by your own words you then you're saying that you should never spank period, never hit anyone, or cause anyone pain. Good, because no good can ever come from causing a child pain, or anyone else for that matter, nothing good at all can ever come from pain. There's no excuse to justify causing pain to anyone."

"Oh really, ha, ha, ha, ha, you fool. By your own admission, you just proved how foolish and worldly you truly are and how you are in the wrong line of work. If that's the way you think, and what you believe, then you shouldn't be a police officer. Here's an example, God's or since you don't believe in God yet, what you would prefer, nature's wrath, fire, or more specifically a forest fire. A forest fire, caused by, unnatural means, say from a lit cigarette, our stupidity, by that, or improperly putting out a campfire, spread by wind, or, by natural means, lightning. Yes destructive, and cleansing, it burns up dead branches, which came from fierce windstorms, it's God's or nature's discipline, and pruning, to get rid of the old, dead, or weak branches, and trees. The fire clears up all the built up dead overgrowth and trees, fertilizing the land with the ashes. Not to mention, it helps open up and spread hardy seeds, that wouldn't otherwise be opened and sewn if it weren't for the fire. Something good came from that fire, yes, new life, and a cleansing." Jason folded his arms over, so Dustin went on. "Need a better one, okay, how about aches and pains from your own body, that are telling you, if you choose listen to them, that, hey, something is wrong, maybe you're sick, or something is broken, or that something drastically needs to change in your life, for the better. Pain could very well save your life. If you get appendices, for example, that pain, could save your life. That pain warning you feel, tells you to get to a doctor, quickly, before they blow up, and could possibly harm you or kill you."

"I've had appendicitis and they burst, and I'm still living. You'll have to try harder with me."

"True, but if you had paid attention to the pain, maybe, you would have gotten to the doctor sooner, rather than later, is all I'm saying. It was the only thing I could think of off the top of my head, and they have been known to kill people. All right then, how about this, my mother she's pregnant, no good can come from pain your say. Guess what, in a few months she's going to go into labor, and be in, I'm sure, excruciating pain, as she pushes my sister or brother out. No good can come from pain, huh, how about a baby? She'll forget about the pain the moment the baby is out, and she's holding the infant in her arms. The pain was well worth it. How about this, the agonizing excruciating brutal pain Jesus went through to save us all when He was Crucified and died on the Cross, huh? That's the most Awesome display of pain with a good purpose." Looks like Dustin finally slapped Jason in the face with a hard truthful reality, if not the Cross, then how about a baby, both were painful, with a purpose. Before Jason could get the idea and ague about how women could use drugs nowadays, so it was painless or virtually painless. But Dustin could have easily countered it with the truth, they had talked about it occasionally and he had witnessed it, well, most of it to know, both Beau and he were drug free births. He could have just told the cop my mom chose to go through the pain of natural childbirth, not once but twice, by having a homebirth not to mention the millions of others especially in times past, who did it without painkillers. "Not good to cause pain, how well and good ideals, but not the reality, we live in a fallen world, and you picked the wrong profession if that's, what I'm assuming, is your liberal ideal and idea, of how the world works. It doesn't work that way. You're a police officer, you have to put life and limb on the line, every day, knobble, but you not causing anyone any pain, huh, guess what, that's is not a reality in your profession. You got guns, right, and you use them right, at times?" Both nodded, Jason, reluctantly. "How about a nightstick, or baton, do you have one, and do you use it?" He asked the officers and lo and behold, Billy proudly pulled out his fixed one while Jason reluctantly pulled out his collapsible one. "Oh really, so what do you use them for then, as if I didn't know. Face reality, you got a criminal like Gordon King resisting arrest, or worse, pointing a gun at someone, about to shoot, guaranteed, you're going to use brute force, rather than try to reason with him. Without hesitation or thinking twice, you might even pull out your own gun and shoot him in the leg or arm, or make a deadly shot. I'll bet you even use these to trip up the running criminals."

"On more than a few occasions I have. Though it's usually used to defend yourself, and block some attacks and throw someone to the ground but yes, most certainly, it can be, and I certainly have, thrown my baton at a few fleeing suspects and criminals to trip them up. This one throws much better and farther because it's heavier compared to the collapsible ones, so I prefer my fixed baton over the collapsible one. It works a lot better for throwing it to hit or trip up a fleeing criminal or suspect who is resisting arrest. And you're right about needing to use brute force at times, because we also use Tasers, pepper spray, or mace, and beanbag guns. Got nothing to say there in your defense there, Jason? Maybe you should reconsider and change professions, the kid's right you know."

He just muttered something under his breath about the kid being right or having a point, and shook his head. "Alright, I get the point, I do, but I still don't agree with the spanking."

"Probably because you never seen or have a clue what a proper spanking is. A good proper spanking is always motivated by love. Love has to be the core reason why you spank. Not because you're angry, not because you want to get back at your child because of what he or she has said or has done. But out of love to motivate them to do the right thing, and to help stop or change a bad behavior that only leads them down the path of destruction and death, and ultimately eternal death. In our house lying, stealing, cheating, deliberate disobedience, defiance, disrespect towards us the parents, hurting or harming someone else, like saying hitting, pinching spitting and biting someone without a legitimate reason; self-defense, automatically earns a spanking. Those are the ones that we spank for, we try to use other punishments, like chores, corner time, loss of allowance, privileges revoked, things like that, and save the spankings for the big deal things like that. We've also gotten pretty creative as well, in figuring out other punishments that work."

"Grounding usually works too at times, but for some reason timeouts and corner time doesn't seem to faze my daughter," Billy said, shaking his head. "I've caught her at times giggling to herself and smiling away, when she thinks I'm not looking."

"You have to know your kid, and what works and what doesn't, because every kid is different. What works with one might not work for the other, or will work better. Grounding won't work for Dustin, right now, he has no friends, to really be grounded from seeing, and if he's cooped up all day, he just acts out worse if he's grounded. If your kid seems to enjoy it, then she's probably entertaining herself in her mind and enjoying the timeout away from everybody. She's not learning anything from it, possibly the same with the grounding as well. You have to be creative in how you discipline them at times to make it hurt them to give them that ouch to deter the bad behavior from happening again."

"You're probably right she's an introvert and a very imaginative child, so it's not a punishment. What do they call those; a funishment? We've had much success with taking away TV and computer time so I guess that's her ouch factor."

He actually came up with something that was decent as a punishment, "How about if she's lazy, to get her to do pushups, and sit-ups, and jumping jacks, and jog a mile, or run around the house a set number of times."

"She could certainly stand to lose a little weight, thanks Jason, I'll do that, I'm sure she'll hate it, but in the end it will do her some good."

"Well I think we need to get this over with, but first, I have to figure out how I can spank you with those brises Gordon gave you. Over the knee won't work, and lying on your bed especially won't work, you'll be in pain before I spank you."

"Hmm how about he bends over and put his hands on his knees," Billy suggests.

"That might work but we always have Dustin cup himself to protect himself, it's our number one priority and it shows he's submissive and ready to take the punishment. I'm afraid he might fall over in that position."

"Then put your hands through his arms, to hold him," Jason sighs shaking his head. "That way he's secure and in the position."

"Hmm yes that works. Dustin?"

"Yes, I guess that works for me too. How many am I getting, do you know?"

"Hmm, 5 for lying to your little brother and you're going to be looking at him the whole time. It should add a little bit more to the correction ouch when you're looking right at him, knowing you lied to him and wronged him by setting a bad example for him."

"Yeah, fair enough," Dustin agreed, and then he showed Beau how to prepare himself for a spanking, for when the time came for Beau to get a spanking. "Beau, when you get a spanking, you always have to do this, cup your hands over your privates, like this, to protect them, when your get a spanking. Mommy wants to keep you safe, and not accidently hurt your genitals. The spanking is to be on your bottom only nowhere else." With a sigh, Dustin got into to the position but even as mom threaded her arm through his looped arms, as he cupped himself and bent over, it just did not feel right, it felt all wrong. It felt too, impersonal.

"Are you ready?"

"No. No, I'm not. This is wrong, this is so wrong," he choked out a sob.

"You know it's supposed to be painful it…"

"No, it's not that, it's this position, it's wrong, all wrong, it just feels so wrong all wrong too impersonal. I'd hate it if you spanked me this way." Dustin got up and shook his head.

"Then what do you suggest?"

Dustin grabbed a pillow and patted his bed and mom sat down and he put the pillow over her lap and he got over her knees in his usual cupping himself but still comfortable and secure position he was used to. This was the position he always was in when receiving a spanking not a training swat or two. "There, much better, this feels right. And I'm not being hurt by my bruises. Spank away, I'm ready now. Beau, I'm to watch you as I get it, so get over here and face me so we can see each other. I'm so sorry I lied to you, please forgive me, for trying to lie to you, for being a coward and not telling you the truth. You can watch too if you like so you know what a loving spanking looks like." Beau walked over and sat down and he watched the whole thing. Billy nodded and left the room, he already knew what a loving spanking looked like, and how to do it right. Jason however, took Dustin up on his offer, and watched and learned that not all spankings were brutal or abusive, there was a loving way to go about it, yes, painful, but in a loving way.

"I love you. You lied to your little brother after I warned him lying is unacceptable and now you are to receive 5 spanks for that lie. Whether you were afraid to tell me or him the truth, or not, there is never a good excuse for lying, to anyone." Brandi decisively and painfully doled out the swats with the handle part of the wooden spoon to Dustin's underwear clothed bottom as Beau watched. Dustin was in tears and crying quietly and remorsefully as Dustin looked at Beau the whole session which added to the, ouch factor. Brandi knew intuitively 5 spanks were plenty, for the no lying lesson to stick. But before she let him up, she twirled the spoon over in her hand and added 2 extra licks, one on each butt cheek, with the spoon end, for Dustin not telling her the whole truth. She realized as she spanked him, that Dustin not telling her the whole truth or purposely leaving stuff out, despite his reasons for it, was just the same as lying, no matter the reason behind it. She would have to address it now, or later, if Dustin didn't tell her now that is, and of course or add more paddling later. "Okay, done," she told him and carefully helped him up.

He hug grasped her half angrily, "W-what was the other t-two smacks for? You said 5 not 7."

"When you're ready to tell me, the whole truth, I'll be ready to tell you, why you deserved the two extra smacks."
