Same here. My dad once told my teacher at a teacher-parent meeting that if I give trouble (and believe you me, I did!), hit him harder. Lol.
I was never abused. All punishment I got was just deserved, and I learnt from it. Besides, there is something to be said for going to the washroom and comparing the "stripes" you got with the other guys.
