       [li]A rural farm family making ends meet, through hard work and
       practical thinking[/li]
       [li]A son whose viewpoint places him at odds with the rest, in
       some notable respects[/li]
       [li]An egregious misdeed, warranting a punishment of
       commensurable severity[/li]
       [li]A spanky "main event" to which I found myself awarding three
       thumbs up! [emoji48] [emoji13][/li]
       [li]Plenty of emotional content + some sweet/loving
       "reconciliation and forgiveness" where the recently-strapped son
       is "welcomed back into the fold" with open arms!

       What's not to love? 😎 Should be quite appealing to WHASS
       sensibilities, very effectively so, but also with a goodly
       helping of "hot" elements 🔥 to intrigue and excite.  In
       the opening preface, you might notice the shoutout to yours
       truly, for the base idea/premise; for what it's worth, I
       questioned whether the author had made a conscious endeavor to
       actively push my personal buttons, if that tells you anything
       helpful... 😉

       I concur. Not to be missed.

       "Guardian: And a Strap" (Halcloud)

       What was previously a "stand-alone" has since become a series!
       :D
       Guardian - And a Strap
  HTML https://malespank.net/viewStory.php?id=54124
       In this second installment, the main character and 1st-persopn
       narrator -- husband and father, Cody -- is paid a rather
       unpleasant visit by his brother's family, the latter of whom is
       rather vocally judgmental, contemptuous even, of our story's
       main nuclear family; the brother has some very strong and
       unambiguous opinions about what he's doing right (i.e., in
       raising his two sons) and what Cody's doing wrong. Not the best
       way, quite obviously, to go about making a request and seeking
       financial/material assistance, is it? Later that night, however,
       the frantic barking of Goliath -- the titular "guardian" of the
       series -- calls the family patriarch's attention outdoors, where
       he finds his two nephews engaged in some decidedly un-wholesome
       misbehavior...
