Domestic Switching Bob and Carol Swift were parents who as children shared particularly strict upbringings. Both were severely chastised until they left home and were married. In fact on their wedding night, Carol sported bruises on her buttocks and thighs from a strapping she had received following an argument with her while trying on her wedding dress. When her mother had had enough of her back talk, she simply had her remove her wedding dress and bend over the bed for a dose of razor strap. Bob was no stranger to corporal punishment either, his father would apply the buggy switch to his bared behind in the barn whenever he had been disobedient. Bob and Carol firmly believe that sparing the rod would spoil their children as 17 year old Steve and 15 year old Sally were well aware. Bob normally handled punishment chores in the family although Carol would observe. However, Bob's job involved travel and this is the story of an incident which occurred while Bob was out of town. Steve and Sally had taken the family car and told their mother they were going out with the church youth group. About an hour after they left the house Carol received a phone call from a friend who informed her that her neighbor's house and yard had been decorated with toilet paper and that when the culprits were surprised, she had observed Bob and Carol's car leaving the scene. This called for severe punishment. Carol removed a knife from the drawer in the kitchen and went outside to the willow tree in the back yard. She cut two switches about a yard long which were as thick as her thumb at the base and tapered to the width of a pencil and the other end. She returned to the house and went in to the living room to await the return of Steve and Sally. About an hour later Carol heard gravel crunch in the driveway and knew that her children had returned. Steve and Sally came bounding in the front door and came to a sudden stop when they saw the switches on the coffee table. Carol then said "You lied to me about where you were going, what happens to children who tell lies?" Steve and Sally stammered "th the they get whippings mama". Carol responded with "you are exactly right, you father is not here so I will have to handle this chore." Steve, go into the kitchen and bring a dinette chair into the living room. Sally you stand right where you are. Steve returned with the chair and placed it in the center of the room. Carol said I normally don't punish you in front of each other, however, this time you were together when you were disobedient. Steve since you are the oldest and were responsible for your sister you will be first. Sally, I want you to stand with your face in the corner and listen while I punish Steve. Your turn will be next. Tears were beginning to stream from her eyes as she moved into the corner. Steve, take off your shoes and pants and place them below the chair. Now, stand behind the chair and lower your underpants - all the way to your knees. Bend over the back of the chair and grasp the front edge of the seat until I tell you I am finished. Carol grasped Steve's shirt tail and lifted it up out of the way above his hips. She then took off her sweater and picked up the first switch. I want you to remember this the next time you decide to lie to me. Carol raised her arm above her shoulder brought it back down, the switch whistled as it move through the air and made a light splat as it connected with Steve across the crease between his thighs and bottom. Steve sharply exhaled and his mother continued. After she had applied about 15 strokes on his bottom and thighs, Steve exclaimed "Mother, Please" Carol replied I have just gotten started. After about 30 strokes had been applied, Steve raised up. Steve, place your hands back on the chair or I will inform your father when he returns and you'll get another dose. Steve complied and his mother continued on. At about the 43d stroke, the switch broke. Carol said this is the penalty for lying I hope I don't have to do this again. Steve was openly sobbing at this point. Carol said pull up your underwear and stand in the corner while I deal with your sister. Sally, come over here in front of the chair and remove your shoes and pants. Sally complied and stood in front of the chair. The t-shirt she was wearing was the type with snaps in the crotch and her mother said "unsnap your shirt and lower your panties. Sally did so, and the elastic waist band of her white cotton panties would not hold them at her knees and the fell around her ankles. Bend over and grab the seat of the chair and stay in position until I tell you you can move. Carol grabbed the hem of Sally's t-shirt and raised it up her back and tucked it under the strap of her bra. Carol said that should keep things out of harm's way. Sally had begun to tremble in fear and embarrassment at the thought of being so exposed with her brother in the room. Carol picked up the second switch and said lying is a sin and in this house sinners are severely punished. She then commenced the punishment with a stroke across Sally's thighs just above the knees. Carol continued, working her way up Sally's thighs to her buttocks and back down again. By the 20th stroke, her bottom and thighs bore a series of angry looking thin read weals where the strokes had landed. Sally had begun to holler and beg for mercy her panties were now around one ankle as she had be begun to kick her legs. After a couple of more strokes Sally started to get up. Carol said if you move again, I will have Steve hold you like I do when your father whips you. Sally was mortified at this thought and grabbed the chair again. Carol continued with the whipping until 50 strokes had been applied. She stopped and said you may stand in the corner next to Steve after you put your underpants back on. After the children had been in the corner for about an hour, Carol said "children, some of those marks will become bruises and I will write a note so you don't have to undress in Gym class. But every time you sit for the next week you will remember what happens when you tell lies. Now go put on your pajamas and go to bed."
