At ten years old, I was falsely accused by a teacher of leng a jump rope on the playground. She assigned me the outrageous punishment of writing 5000 sentences. I refused.
10岁时老师冤枉我把跳绳落在操场上,竟然罚我写5000个句子,我没同意。

She sent me to the principal's office. He used a wooden paddle and beat my buttocks and back of legs 10 times.
她把我送到校长室,校长用木板打了我屁股和腿后面10下。

I'll never forget the smile on his face as he told me to bend over.
我永远不会忘记让我弯腰时他脸上的笑。

I'll never forget the agony of not being able to sit down.
我永远不会忘记那种坐不下的疼。

I'll never forget the look on my mom's face when she saw my naked butt on the way to the shower; black and blue from the butt to the back of the knee.
我永远不会忘记我妈妈带我去淋浴时看见我光着的屁股时脸上的表情,从屁股到膝盖后面青一块紫一块。

She left it to my dad to deal with who only stated that I needed to learn how to avoid trouble.
她把这件事交给我爸爸处理,爸爸只说我要学会怎样避免麻烦。

I went from a happy schoolboy to an absolute terror.

I learned to evade teachers and anyone else in authority.

I played pranks on teachers, let the air out of teachers' car tires, etc.

On days when I knew I would be caught, I wore two pairs of pants and as much underwear as possible.

I would fake the cry when paddled then give my schoolmates a smirk as I came out of the office.
被打时我会装哭,然后走出办公室时对其他学生露出得意的笑。

This was at a religious school. The paddling woke me to the fact that these religious authority figures were tyrants. I became an agnostic.
那就发生在教会学校,被打使我认清了一个事实,这些教会的领导都是暴君,我变成了一个不可知论者。

I didn't learn to be care-free and happy again until I had children of my own. They taught me how to laugh again.
我再也没学会无忧无虑和快乐,直到自己有了孩子。孩子们使我再次学会了笑。
