       Which Implement

       Jack,
       I am curious as to how you choose what implement to use when
       giving a spanking.  Age?  Experience? Severity of crime?
       Availability?  Mood?  All of the above?  Something else?

       For the record, David had originally asked this as part of the
       spanking report, but I felt it would work better as it's on
       topic, so I split it apart and slightly edited his original
       post.
       In general is a term I realized I was using several times as I
       wrote this, so allow me to preface by saying that I do have a
       general idea of how I handle things, but I also play things by
       hear a bit.  I tend to do things the same way, because I believe
       consistency is important, but there are times I will change
       things up a bit for a number of reasons.
       Let's start with the fact that I have raised a bunch of kids,
       and I've dealt with many others, so I have a rough idea of how I
       want to do things, and I fit the new kids into that.
       I think age/size is/are the main component(s) in my choices.  I
       suppose grade is also a major guide, but it's more general.  I
       think I start looking for something about the time the kids
       start a new grade, but I focus more as they approach a birthday,
       though I also consider if they're bigger or smaller than average
       for their size. I do not have a hard and fast rule, but I think
       I generally upgrade about every two to three years; starting
       around 6, then upgrading around 8, and again about 10, 13, and
       16.  Even those aren't hard and fast rules.  I gave a spanking
       last night that's going to be an example of that, but a more
       general example is that I use the Tailblazer (a wooden
       turner/spatula) on Connor and Curtis both, but Curtis is more
       likely to get 'just' a hand spanking than his big brother is.
       On the other hand, despite the fact that Craig is an average
       size 13-year old old (about 13 and a half now), I will probably
       use the Tailblazer on him for his first spanking.  He's bigger
       than Jake, who gets the Red Maple, but Jake was experienced
       before I ever met him, while Craig has about zero experience
       with CP from what I know - certainly none since he was about 6.
       Availability isn't really an issue - I've been traveling in
       charge of kids nearly as long as I've been spanking (I first
       took my little brothers on a road trip when I was 19 and they
       were 12, 11, and 10).  If I'm going to be away from the house
       for long, I plan to deal with behavior issues.  If I'm not going
       to be away from the house for long, either it can wait until we
       get home, or I do have usually a Tailblazer and hairbrush in the
       cars, along with my hand of course, so we can manage to deal
       with it for younger kids who need to be handled more quickly.
       Severity of crime is more of an issue, however, I usually deal
       with it in other ways.  I think most people here know that I
       think a longer spanking with a determined tempo, rather than
       just a few hard, fast swats makes much more of an impression.
       Because of that, I use a pattern, but it's a pattern that can
       easily be extended for the size of the bottom/implement ratio.
       I doubt the boys know exactly how many swats I'm going to give,
       but they know their upper thighs are going to get a few smacks
       in any spanking, but it's worse in a deluxe, and a double deluxe
       means extra attention to the entire area and a longer recovery
       time from the burning and the ache.
       That doesn't mean I want also do what I call 'upgrade' if I feel
       the situation calls for it.  This is most likely to happen when
       a boy is 12-ish, especially if he's starting to show signs of
       puberty/growth spurt, but it will probably be decided because of
       behavior - either the severity in a certain case of because of
       what I feel is repeated misbehavior. That will probably earn a
       dose of the Red Maple, but with those boys are boys who are
       already getting the Red Maple, it could also mean a taste of the
       hairbrush.
       Finally, I think we need to remember that I am a spanko.  While
       I try to make myself adhere strictly to the rules, and I try to
       always give the boys the benefit of the doubt, I have to admit
       that sometimes my mood does affect what is used.  For years, my
       pre-teens were mostly spanked with a variety of novelty and
       smaller paddles.  One day, while I was grocery shopping, I saw
       an Imusa wooden turner with a plastic grip, and I bought it and
       tried it.  I liked it enough that I switched to it.  The same
       basic thing happened when I was considering allowing the older
       boys a choice of being paddled in some cases, but I was worried
       about wood bruising too easily, and I read about Lexan.  It
       worked so well I ended up with three paddles that I use,
       occasionally even on younger (but bigger) teens.
       Looking back, I think that covers most of what guides me.  If
       anything is unclear or if I did miss something, feel free to ask
       for clarification.

       Do you ever embark on a spanking and find at a certain point
       (may its a while since the last one) that a kid isnty responding
       quite as you expected, eg taking it better or worse and adjust
       what you were planning for them part way through.

       It's happened at times.  It's not too frequent with my own kids,
       since I know them pretty well.  I have had it happen in both
       directions, where they seemed to take a spanking much worse than
       I expected, so I backed off on what I intended, and some cases
       where I didn't seem to make quite as firm a point as I'd
       expected, so I added a bit extra at the end.
