I had a better way to stop the beatings from my father. The last time he put me over his knee and beat the living daylights of out my backside with a shoe, I was 9. I simply did not cry, or moan or scream or beg for forgiveness like I had done every time before. All I did was after it was finished, stand up, look him straight in the eye and hold his gaze for a few seconds, then walk off. He never did it again.
