Good for you - always Gr8 to hear a success story.
I am the same age and have 3 responsible kids whom only got spanked a few times to learn that Mom & Dad meant business!
No brutality - just good old fashioned up bringing.
I am w/ ya all the way brother!
Mike/The Corvair a holic - 13 of the little darlins! And 3 GMC MH’s -
It’s an addiction!!!
