When I was a kid and done something naughty I got the wooden spoon. Now these days kids can get away with just about anything no wonder there are so many kids stealing things, damaging property and bullying and bashing others

And there lies the problem with society these days with certain kids having behaviour issues. Parents unable to control kids because they’ll get in trouble if they lay a finger on them. Bloody disgrace.

🤦‍♂️ bros lucky he only got smacked with a wood spoon i would of got the metal end of the belt to the back

Good For Her
