I was interested to read the account from Barry about being spanked for walking in on his parents having sex. On your Twitter account, someone remarked that it was slightly unfair for him to be punished as he hadn’t been explicitly forbidden to enter the room where the lovemaking was happening.
I also received a dose of corporal punishment for seeing my parents ‘at it’ but unlike Barry, I have to admit that I fully deserved what I got, as I had always been expressly forbidden from entering my parents’ bedroom. It was a private area of the house, in their eyes, and children had no business being there.
