Even grandmothers have their limits. Caiden's grandmother loves to spoil her grandkids, but when her youngest grandkid decides to throw a tantrum at a restaurant, run off from her in a busy parking lot, and constantly say potty words in the car after she asked him multiple times to stop, something had to be done.
"Caiden sweety, Grandma didn't like the way you behaved at the store and lunch today, so when we get home we're going to take an early nap and start over this afternoon." said Grandma kindly as she was driving home from lunch at the fast food restaurant.
"No! I dun wanna take a nap!" yelled Caiden from his carseat as he threw his stuffed animal 'Mooser' on the ground.
"I know Caiden, but you'll feel better after." replied Grandma as she pulled into the driveway.
"No nap! No nap! No nap! You stinky doody head!" chanted Caiden as his grandmother started to unbuckle his carseat seatbelt.
"*Gasp* Such naughty language Caiden. You don't speak to grown ups or anyone like that understand?" lectured Grandma as she lifted Caiden out of the car and placed him on the ground, "Now it's naptime so run inside."
"No! *Psstttppp!*" yelled Caiden as he stuck his tongue out and ran to the front porch.
Grandma was starting to lose her patience, but calmed down, grabbed Mooser and the diaper bag, and followed Caiden to the front porch where she found him playing with a toy car.
"Caiden. Grandma is not happy with how you are not listen-" started Grandma before she was cut off.
"Go away!" interrupted Caiden as he continued playing.
"Caiden Smith! I know that I let you get away with some things, but I will not tolerate direct disobedience or disrespect. It's not nice and you wouldn't do that to your parents or any other grown up." Lectured Grandma sternly, "Now I'm going to count to three and if you're not inside that house, I'm afraid that I'm going to have go give you a spanking. 1....."
"*VROOM!* *VROOM!*" went Caiden really loud as to drown out his grandmother.
"....2...." continued Grandma
"No way 'tinky wady!" spouted Caiden as he folded his arms and shook his head.
"....2 and a half...." counted Grandma with a stern glare.
"Hmp!" went Caiden as he turned his back to her.
"*Sigh* 3. OK Caiden, I gave you a lot of chances to make the right decision so now you're getting a spanking." said Grandma somberly as she placed the diaper bag on the ground, picked up her grandson, sat on the porch bench, and sat him on her lap.
"Wait wait wait gwandma! I go take a nap!" said Caiden with an instant change of tune as he covered his diapered butt with his paws.
"Yes you will....after your spanking." replied Grandma as she pulled Caiden's paddle out of his diaper bag, "Do you know why Grandma has to spank you?"
"Y-you dooonnn'tttt, I go nap now..." whined Caiden as he started to tear up.
"I do though sweety. Was it good or naughty when you threw a temper tantrum at the restaurant when I told you it was time to stop playing on the playground and eat your food?" asked Grandma.
"N-naughty..." answered Caiden.
"How about when you let go of my hand in the parking lot? Was that a very safe or obedient thing to do?" continued Grandma
"...It wasnt." replied Caiden
"Mh hm, and the naughty words you were saying and calling me?" asked Grandma.
"...bad..." sniffled Caiden.
"Right. Those were all naughty things to do. That doesn't make you a bad cub, it just means that you made bad choices." explained Grandma, "Even after all of those things, we still did fun things today. Since you were a little naughty today, what did I tell you to do when we got home?"
"...um...take a nap." replied Caiden.
"That's right, and did you listen to Grandma?" asked the elderly wolf.
"N-no." said Caiden.
"...and what did Grandma say would happen if you didn't listen?" continued Grandma.
"'pankin'." whispered the naughty toddler.
"That's right Caiden. I'm sorry this has to happen, but you were warned many times and you need to learn that there are consequences for the things that you do." said Grandma as she laid her grandson over her lap.
"No! Gwandma pwease! I'll be a good boy. No 'pankies!" pleaded Caiden as his diaper was untaped and pulled back.
"You're getting four swats for acting up today. One for every year you've been alive plus one for good measure. This hurts me more than it hurts you little man." said Grandma as she grabbed the paddle and rose it up.
*THWACK!*
"OWIE!" yelped Caiden as the paddle made contact with his unprotected hiney.
"When your caretaker tells you to do something, you don't argue, call them names, or throw a temper tantrum." lectured Grandma as she wound up for the next swat.
*THWACK!*
"AH! Owie Grandma! No more!" yelled Caiden as he shifted around in her lap.
"Running off into the street or parking lot without a grownup is a VERY unsafe thing to do and you could have gotten VERY hurt." Continued Grandma as the next swat landed.
*THWACK!*
"OWIE! I wun do it again! I sowwy!" cried Caiden as he gripped the railing on the side of the porch and started to tear up.
"You have one more swat and it's all over Caiden. You're doing very good." encoragued Grandma as she rasied the paddle a final time and spanked Caiden firmly.
*THWACK!*
"WWAAAHhhhh..." wailed Caiden as the last swat made contact with his red butt.
"There there, all done Caiden. No more spankies." comforted Grandma as she sat Caiden in her lap and cuddled him.
Caiden cried for a few minutes while his grandmother rocked and soothed him. She retaped his diaper and carried him inside.
"I sowwy for bein naughty Gwandma..." sniffled Caiden as his grandmother laid him on the couch.
"It's ok sweety, I forgive you. Go ahaead and get some rest and we'll start fresh after your nap." whispered Grandma as she placed a blanket over Caiden, handed him Mooser, and kissed him on the forehead.
Caiden smiled and almost instantly fell asleep. After a long nap, Caiden and his grandmother had no problems the rest of the day.
