Here in my town, some friends of my aunt's, had a little girl who got in trouble. Her daddy told her to go outside and get a switch. (for our Yankee and over seas friends...switch= a little limb off of a bush)
The little girl goes outside and stays for a long time. At last she comes in the door with one hand behind her back and crying.
She pulled her hand to the front and said, "I couldn't find a switch daddy, but I got a rock and you can throw it at me if you want to."
She was off the hook, daddy could bare to punish her then.
