Once, when I was a little girl, I stole a dollar from my babysitter’s purse – and back then, a dollar was a lot of money. When I got home, I put it under my bed for safe keeping. I don’t remember how but my mother found it, but find it she did and demanded to know where it came from. I told her that I found it under my bed.
She was absolutely furious. She turned me around, pulled my pants down (with my underwear) and smacked me hard right on my backside. I hollered in pain. Then she turned me right back around and proceeded to ask me again where I had gotten the money. I again told her that I had found it under my bed.
