      - How were you disciplined? -- nm - David Sep 14, 09:48 2
        
        The threat of the belt was enough to keep me from being caught the rare times I was bad. -- nm - Spawn Sep 14, 09:49 1
        
        But if you lived in a world where corporal punishment was not done, how could you perceive that as a real threat? -- nm - con_carne Sep 14, 13:08
