We had to go out in the back yard, cut a lilac switch, bring it to my dad, who preceeded to spank us with it........if the switch wasn't the right length, you went back out to get a "more adequate" one.......

Spanking was the norm back then...part of the problem now is you have a bunch of idiots raising kids who can't differentiate between spanking and beating.
My parents tried that on me once. I said "no" if you want to beat me with it you go get it.
