re: Creative threats your parents came up with

I know a guy who swears up and down that he thought his name was "goddammit" until he was four or five years old.

Never heard that. Ive heard "down to the white meat". As in, I'll beat you until I see white meat on the bone.

Creative threats your parents came up with
My mother had a good one for times when a spanking just wasn't enough. When she said "I'll yank a knot in your tail!" we knew things were getting serious.
That little woman could have done it, too, tail or no tail. Damn, she could get mean.

480 I concur that was over the line. Again, I'm not condoning actually abusing a child. But I bruise easily- can't even trip over the ottoman without bruising. My dad only hit me on a few occasions. I bruised every time. It wasn't child abuse. It was me being a shite head and needing a whack. I wasn't abused
I can agree with all of that.

My mother would sometimes say, "I'll skin you alive", as a verbal cue. At the time, I never really thought about what it meant in the literal sense. I just knew it meant I'd better stop whatever I was doing at the time. She was a very small woman and probably didn't weigh 100 lbs., and a very kind person...very kind and caring. Thinking back, it makes me laugh. She knew what it took to deal with my young butt.

No desert for a week
We didn't watch too much TV so that threat didn't really work that much but I imagine no social media / computer or iPhone access is a good threat these days

But that's not what you inferred with your post. You said I was a " sick frick" because I suggested kids bruise. You are the perfect example of the differing methods of parenting. You appear to be the type who would nurture to a fault. My father was more patriarchal than paternal. Justice was swift and undeniable. But I love him with all my heart to this dAy and worship the ground he walks on. Guess I responded to discipline more than reasoning.
To each his own. Whatever my father did, it worked for me.

I'm the youngest of 6, 5 of us being boys. My momma weighs 95 pounds soaking wet, and can *still* cause her kids to straighten the hell out in a hurry, with no more than pointing a wooden spoon at us and telling us to simmer down.
Being the youngest, I spent a lot of time with my oldest brother, including tagging along when he went to the Marine Corps recruiter. They asked him if he was afraid of anything, and he said 'Just my Momma'. They said 'That'll do' and signed him up.

This is going to sound terrible, but it is what it is.
I went to a private school from K-6. I once made a bad grade and my former step dad threatened to send me to school with the black kids becuse I was wasting his money.
Former step dad for some obvious reasons. I still laugh at how ridiculous that was.

I used to tell my little one that chupacabra would get him.
Also have threatened with public school, the big plastic soup spoon, soap, etc.
My favorite is to make one of them the slave to whoever that one is being mean to. For one hour.

Papa Scruffy always used to threaten us by saying he would make the two people fighting go and hug in the front yard next to the road for a few hours.
Screw that. Scruffy ain't into incest.
