My father used a belt. Did I say that already? I can't remember and am too lazy to go look it up.
When I was *very* young, like under 10, my mom used a small wooden paddle that was oval like the paddle ball paddles.
'course, NOW, I like RG to use leather on me -- belts, straps, whatever - altho I had a fear of them when we first formed our relationship due to the two impressionable times it was used on me by my father.
