My mother -come to find out- liked to spank with a wooden spoon. It leaves this little round whelp on the leg or butt area. She's Thai, homegrown, so it's like not she's that educated about things, bless her heart. Anyways, come to find out, she started this when I was 2. Now I have tons of alternate personalities from the lack of integration before 5 years old. Oh forgot to mention by dad bullied me from 10 years to high school. Bouncing off walls was normal for me...like at a certain point I really deserved it (sarcasm). Getting my butt kicked at home kinda makes you not want to do anything. Today I'm 47 years old with major multiple personalities, bipolar 1, and all kinds of other stupid crap because somebody else was stupid. Thanks Mom and Dad.
