Think Before You Speak

I was 9 years old when I got the hIding of my life. I had a normal upbringing which usually meant when I was naughty I got 3 or 4 smacks across the back of my legs. The worst hiding happened at my kid sisters 7th birthday party. It was in august and it was a nice sunny day we were all in swimming costume and were playing in a paddling pool. We both had some friends round and a good time was being had by all. All was well until I started squabbling with my sister as you do with siblings at that age. Well she pushed me I pushed her back then she kicked me so I shoved her hard with both hands and she went flying backwards landed with a thud and screamed and started crying. Mum came running over just saw me push my sister over. Not knowing the full story my mum grabbed me and gave me several hard smacks accross my bottom and legs, all this in front of my friends. I stood there crying feeling angry and embarressed and without thinking I just blurted out 'You ******* rotton old cow' As soon as I said this I knew I had just made the biggest mistake of my life. There was a stunned silence and mum was speechless for a few seconds then she said 'What did you say ? WHAT DID YOU SAY ?' I tried to mumble sorry but mum just grabbed my wrist and marched toward the house saying ' The party's over for you, you disgusting little boy' She took me into my bedroom when out then came back with one of my dads belts. She then pulled my swimming trunks down Held my arm up my back and got me face down on the bed. She then started spanking me with the belt really laying in to me saying that she had never been so digusted by the filth that had come out my mouth. I got about 20 or 30 good hard whacks and I screamed and cried all the way through. I was then left sobbing on my bed having learned to always think before you speak.
