| Billy Kadlec | |
| By: Jack Date: June 4, 2018, 4:28 am | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| It's been about 15 months since I first met William 'Billy' | |
| Kadlec. I shared the story of that meeting in The Cost of a | |
| Field Trip (This story is now posted as Bransom, TX 2017 - | |
| William's Warning on MMSA - | |
| https://malespank.net/viewStory.php?id=54986 | |
| ). | |
| After that story appeared on 8 March, I posted this on the same | |
| day. | |
| "At the end of my post about the story where Billy is | |
| introduced, I asked 'how much more of him will I see?' The | |
| answer is 'pretty much everything'. | |
| Sorry, I couldn't resist the double entendre. | |
| When the kids arrived home that afternoon, Ethan Guthrey asked | |
| me if I knew a kid named Billy Kadlec. I told him we'd met and | |
| asked why. It turns out that Billy had asked both him and Evan | |
| Tidwell about me. Not only that, but he'd said I seemed like a | |
| really nice guy. He also caught Colt after school and introduced | |
| himself. Ethan says he's okay (Evan didn't come over that day), | |
| and Colt said the same, though he's only seen him around. I told | |
| Colt he could invite him over after school on Friday, if he | |
| wanted. | |
| He did. | |
| While my younger kids had other plans than seeing Logan that | |
| Friday (3 March), Billy came over and hung out for a few hours, | |
| then joined us at Cici's for dinner. (For the record, my tweens | |
| spent the night at Paul Lincoln's house that night, and they | |
| spent the evening at the batting cages and playing Putt Putt). | |
| Billy's mom picked him up at Cici's, but both of them joined us | |
| the next day, when we went to Irish Fest. We left early, because | |
| it was a bit chilly, windy, and drizzling, but we did have a | |
| good time. His mom let him spend the rest of the day with us. | |
| They also had lunch with us Sunday. | |
| Saturday afternoon, Billy and I had a little private time. I | |
| took him down to the hand-me-down closet. I started digging for | |
| stuff, and told him to try it on. The shirts were okay, but when | |
| I told him to try on a pair of pants, he went into turbo-blush. | |
| I told him he could use the bathroom to change, if he was | |
| embarrassed, but he shook his head. ""I guess you've already | |
| seen me with my clothes off."" | |
| Billy does have a lean build, but he's a bit soft - nicely | |
| padded. He does ride his bike a lot, and has nice calves, | |
| though. | |
| I had plenty of hand-me-downs for BCA uniform that were about | |
| Billy's size, because I hold extras for the uniform exchange, | |
| just because of the amount of space I have. He has shorts that | |
| fit, but his mom didn't want to buy long pants that he wouldn't | |
| be wearing in a few weeks, but our crazy weather lately makes | |
| that a hard bet. I got him four pair of long slacks - two navy | |
| and two khaki, and a couple of more shirts. His briefs were a | |
| bit snug, so I gave him some of those and a couple of | |
| undershirts as well. I usually buy underclothes when I see them | |
| on sale, so I always have extras when needed. Plus, I like to | |
| think of him having a variety of briefs to chose from now, and I | |
| did sneak a pair of Tigers in. | |
| I did tell his mom about that, and let her know that I keep | |
| things for the uniform exchange, and that Billy is a bit bigger | |
| than Colt (and a lot bigger than Aidan Guthrey), so she didn't | |
| owe me anything, but could just give me Billy's outgrown stuff | |
| to pass around to whomever needs it. | |
| I've seen Billy four times now (since the first time), and seen | |
| his mom twice. His mom has decided that I'm not some crazy | |
| guy... Wait, she's actually decided that I'm totally insane, but | |
| not in a scary way. She said I have to be crazy to have this | |
| many kids, and then invite guests. I gave her a few comics. She | |
| read and enjoyed them. She also has seen how many BCA boys I | |
| have around here, including some in the same grade as Billy, and | |
| the standards of behavior to which I hold them, and she seems to | |
| like it. Some days she's able to get home a bit after four, | |
| which is okay, but she sometimes has to work later, and I'm | |
| thinking about just inviting Billy to come home with my kids on | |
| those days." | |
| "I still don't know why I reacted the way I did to him, but I | |
| really like him, and he seems to return it. We'll have to see | |
| where it goes. | |
| In the meantime, I have learned a few important things about | |
| Billy. | |
| 1) His father passed away about three years ago. Apparently it | |
| was an undiagnosed heart problem. | |
| 2) Billy's dad worked at home, and he homeschooled Billy. When | |
| his mom was trying to enroll him in public school, she couldn't | |
| get things arranged as she wanted, and someone told her about | |
| BCA. That's important because, while Billy is an eighth grader, | |
| he's not 14 or 13 1/2. He's not even 13 until 27 April. He was a | |
| year ahead from his homeschooling. | |
| 3) Do you remember from the story that Billy knew Van? Billy | |
| plays piano, and he's really impressed by Van (I think there's a | |
| bit of a crush there). However, he knows him from elsewhere as | |
| well - they're in the same science class, but not the same math | |
| class. Van is taking Algebra I, but Billy is already in Algebra | |
| II. | |
| 4) His mom usually doesn't spank his bottom. She normally uses a | |
| 'switch' on the palm of his hand. | |
| Details - have you seen those fancy, artifical plant/flower | |
| displays with different stuff stuck in vases that you can buy at | |
| places like Michael's? Well, she has some of those, and one or | |
| two of them have... he just calls them swishy sticks, but I | |
| think they're called artificial stems. Anyway, when he gets in | |
| trouble at home (which he says isn't too often), he gets a few | |
| cuts across the palm of his hand. He says it burns like crazy, | |
| and makes little lines, but they don't last very much longer | |
| than the sting does. | |
| He also says he occasionally gets the switch on his butt. He | |
| says that's better, because it's normally on his pants. It's | |
| only when he's wearing pajamas that it's pretty bad, and the | |
| worst whupping he ever got from his mom was when he was only | |
| wearing his underpants and she caught him on the back of the | |
| leg. | |
| He did get to go on the Field Trip, which was yesterday. I think | |
| everyone had a good time. When I talked to Billy afterwards, I | |
| asked him if he wished he'd just asked his mom. | |
| ""Nah, 'cause if I hadn't gotten in trouble, we never woulda | |
| met, and I wouldn't get to come over and hang out with | |
| everybody."" | |
| ""I hadn't thought of that. Was it worth it?"" | |
| ""It is now that my butt quit hurting.""" | |
| After that, I shared a minor update on 31 March | |
| "I went into BCA this afternoon. I needed to straighten out some | |
| paperwork for Zeke, and they're after me to teach a few classes | |
| before we get too close to the end of school. There was | |
| something going on in front of the school (unloading something), | |
| so I pulled around to the side. I saw a boys' gym class, so I | |
| parked by the gym. | |
| It was the eighth grade boys gym class, and Marcus teaches it. | |
| When I pulled up with the top down, I got the attention of a | |
| number of the boys, and then someone called 'Uncle Jack'. When | |
| Marcus saw me, he invited me over and introduced me to the | |
| (relatively small number of) boys who didn't know me. In that | |
| class, we have Tyler Knight, Ethan Guthrey, Scott Malone, Ethan | |
| Tidwell, and Rusty Ballard are all in that class, and I know | |
| I've talked about all of them here (Rusty Ballard probably | |
| least, but he's one of my Scouts). There are also four other | |
| kids whom I know (I mean, besides Billy), bringing the total up | |
| to 10 kids I know, out of a total of 16 boys in the entire | |
| class. | |
| The class was almost over, so I walked in through the locker | |
| room, but didn't stay long, though I did see a couple of the | |
| quicker boys getting into the showers. | |
| Anyway, I did see Billy today, but it's not the first time I've | |
| seen him since I did this bio. | |
| His mom is hesitant to 'take advantage of me' (which is funny - | |
| like I'd notice one extra boy), but he has been coming over here | |
| on days she has to work late. She loves it, because she was | |
| having to pay a neighbor to watch him until he got home, and he | |
| hated anything that resembled being babysat. | |
| I said before that I'd given Ms. Kadlec a few comics. Well, she | |
| now has a list of her own, and Billy is allowed to get a book or | |
| two and a few comics each week. He loves it, and she loves | |
| having new stuff to read. | |
| I mentioned that I thought Billy had a crush on Van, but I think | |
| Van might be in love with Billy - he let Billy play with his | |
| keyboard! The two of them have also shared the piano bench | |
| downstairs and played some duet stuff. Billy obviously has some | |
| hero worship going with Van, and he seems to get along well with | |
| several of Van's friends. | |
| For that matter, while they don't go to BCA, Billy also seems to | |
| get along well with Leif, Devon, and Kenny and their friends. | |
| Billy is going to see Ghost in the Shell with us, and he's | |
| spending the night. His mom is going to see the movie with us, | |
| but she has to be at work early tomorrow morning, so she's very | |
| happy he has a place to hang out and people to hang with. He's | |
| planning on going to see Colt's baseball game with us, then come | |
| back and play around as Van auditions new Phantoms." | |
| "Oh, and he did confess to me about... ten days ago? his mom had | |
| spanked both hands! She'd found one of my books in his room and | |
| asked him about it. He'd borrowed it without my permission, so | |
| he attempted to lie to his mom about it. Apparently he's not | |
| very good at it, and the truth came out. He got his hands | |
| spanked for lying, and then he had to return the book to me, | |
| confess and apologize, and then he mentioned that his mom had | |
| given me permission to spank him. | |
| The phrase 'don't look a gift horse in the mouth' came to mind. | |
| In the end, Billy really is my friend, so we had a little talk | |
| about the proper way to borrow things, and I assured him that he | |
| was forgiven for this, but the next time it happens, he can | |
| expect to get the same thing Kenny or Colt would get. I got a | |
| big hug for that. And his mom did check back later. It turns out | |
| he'd lied to me as well. It had been his idea for me to spank | |
| him for taking the book... Well, she had given permission, so | |
| maybe it wasn't really a lie, and it was one I would have | |
| forgiven anyway. | |
| Besides, he and I had been looking at some books, and I'd shown | |
| him that one. I didn't know he'd taken it, but I certainly | |
| wouldn't have told him 'no', if he had asked, and I can see how | |
| he might have thought I'd intended for him to borrow it." | |
| After that, it was 14 June before I mentioned him again. | |
| It's been a while since I've said much about Billy, but it's | |
| definitely time for an update. | |
| Billy has been over here a lot since March. He went to several | |
| movies with us, spent the night a few times, and has been over | |
| here about 8 times in the less than two weeks since school | |
| ended. | |
| And no, I've not spanked him yet. | |
| Billy and I have developed a relationship over the last two or | |
| three months. It's always interesting when I make friends with a | |
| boy in Billy's situation: you kind of half want to let them | |
| decide where they want things to go, then decide how willing you | |
| are to go there. Billy and I are definitely friends, and I think | |
| he wants a bit more than that. His Mom is okay with it now that | |
| she's come to know me. The simple fact is that some boys who are | |
| fatherless aren't interested in trying to find a replacement. In | |
| our case, it's hard for me not to treat the boys around here in | |
| a fatherly fashion, and I guess the least I can say is that | |
| Billy seems happy to accept that. | |
| Billy loves to talk books, and he and I have done that. He's | |
| gotten interested in Scouting, and we're getting him going | |
| there. He's actually also interested in talking number theory, | |
| which can be fun (not much call for those discussions, tbh). | |
| We've also had a few problems - all fairly minor, but especially | |
| so (the frequency, not the seriousness) since summer started. | |
| Billy and I sat down yesterday, discussed a few things that were | |
| concerning me, then discussed a few of his concerns. | |
| We started by discussing the minor things he's been doing since | |
| summer started. Part of me feels like he's testing limits. It | |
| actually makes sense to an extent. He's not becoming part of our | |
| household, but he knows I've spanked 'some' of the boys' | |
| friends, and he will be spending a lot of time here this summer. | |
| After I pointed out the things he's been doing (pushing | |
| boundaries - which isn't a big thing, considering his age), | |
| pushing curfews, arguing about some of the minor rules, and | |
| going into my library without permission (which I decided to | |
| openly give him, as long as he doesn't take anything without | |
| checking it out and letting me know), he (reluctantly) agreed | |
| he'd probably earned a spanking. | |
| Despite his harsh punishment at school, and the way his mom | |
| handles things, he wants to be treated 'like the other guys'. | |
| Strangely enough, I'm okay with that. He did seem happy to | |
| accept an offer that his first official spanking from me be | |
| limited to hand. It turns out his father spanked him that way - | |
| normally bare by hand, though it sounds like there was some | |
| variation (Billy is pretty private about his dad so far, so I | |
| haven't heard a lot of detail). He was even happier to accept | |
| 'one more last chance'. | |
| We did agree on what he needs to do to improve, and what I have | |
| a right to expect from him. Then we waited on his mom. | |
| As I think I said before, his mom mostly sent him to BCA for | |
| academics, not religious reasons, but she is a Church-goer, and | |
| she seems happy to have had Billy fall in with a man who has a | |
| lot of ... (anything I say here sounds like bragging on myself, | |
| so we'll just say she knows some people whom I know, and they've | |
| all given me good reviews). She did love Billy's dad very much. | |
| While she's dated a couple of times, she's just not interested | |
| in getting serious right now. | |
| While things didn't start out well, I've always like that she | |
| gave in and was willing to try things and admit that she was | |
| wrong. I don't know that we'll ever become great friends, but | |
| she seems like a pretty good person, she seems like she does try | |
| to listen to Billy and be fair, and she does recognize his needs | |
| that she can't fulfill. On the other hand, while he missed being | |
| here one day because he'd gotten behind on chores, another day | |
| he missed was because they went to Six Flags together. | |
| When she arrived, we talked through several things. She'd | |
| already decided that she was going to try leaving Billy alone | |
| while my kids were at camp. That's still going to happen, but | |
| not as much as she expected. At Billy's request, she will drop | |
| him here early Tuesday morning, and go to work with me. Besides | |
| work, we're going to spend time talking books and comics, and | |
| I'm going to help him with some wood working - yes, he's making | |
| his own paddle - a maple Red, much like Emmet's. He likes | |
| Emmet's initials, but decided he wants to call his Billy's Red, | |
| which I respect (look at that and think about it for a minute - | |
| kids got a good head on his shoulders). He'll be going to work | |
| with me Wednesday, also, and staying until Thursday, when we'll | |
| do our Scout fill in for the kids who are still around (I'll be | |
| gone Monday, dropping mine at camp). | |
| His mom and I were both hesitant about him staying here with my | |
| kids gone, especially with him spending the night, but he likes | |
| the little kids, and I'll still have other kids here during the | |
| day at least part of the week, so it's really not that weird - | |
| at least his mom didn't think so, and I know I don't intend to | |
| molest him, so... | |
| And that's where we stand with young Mister Kadlec . Now if | |
| he'll just stop fooling around and get into a bit of real | |
| trouble so we can get the will they/won't they thing over with. | |
| Finally, I made an undated post on what seems to have been the | |
| old forums last day. | |
| It's hilarious. With as much time as Billy spends around here, | |
| you'd think I'd talk about him more. | |
| Billy has had a pretty good summer. | |
| Billy has been spanked a couple of times over here - (this | |
| shares two links from the old forum for BOTD's. Neither of them | |
| seem to be rescued, and there are things from the last days of | |
| the forums missing from Leti's files, so these details may just | |
| be lost). There were a couple of times that I had decent reasons | |
| to give him a solo spanking, but I haven't done it yet - not | |
| even after he finished his Maple novelty paddle (well, maybe a | |
| test smack or two). | |
| I'm not sure why I haven't spanked him yet. He's almost perfect | |
| for me - both in himself and because he's that perfect age. It | |
| wouldn't even be the first time that I've spanked a boy I | |
| considered my friend. I just haven't done it yet; but then, he | |
| hasn't really earned one yet, either. | |
| Anyway, I got a good understanding of why Billy is just 13, but | |
| is taking mostly freshman and sophomore level classes. We had | |
| basically 12 weeks of summer (though we were gone for a week, | |
| and my kids were gone for two more) so I planned for 9 weeks or | |
| projects and movies. We ended upexpanding that a bit, so the | |
| boys who were around here while my kids were at camp could see | |
| movies (though ones that were outside our plans). Some of my | |
| suggestions for projects were just 'science project' and a list | |
| of places to look. Others, like cultural history, were much more | |
| specific. The thing is, by about the middle of the summer, Billy | |
| had already done one from each category (15) and was looking for | |
| more. We sat down together and came up with more. | |
| Despite the trouble when I first met them, Billy and his mom | |
| obviously love each other. While they weren't able to get away | |
| for a real vacation, they did stuff together almost every week. | |
| Despite that, Bill loves being over here in a high testosterone | |
| environment, and he's made friends with a lot of my boys, and | |
| with me. | |
| I'm sure I've mentioned Billy a few times in the new forum. He | |
| and I are still friends, but he's also friends with all my | |
| middle and younger high school boys. More than that - he's one | |
| of them. He considers them his brothers, and he does call me | |
| dad. | |
| Last night, I shared a BOTD - Share and Share Alike | |
| https://jackshouse.createaforum.com/botd/botd-20180604-share-and-share-alike/.<… | |
| /> It is basically true, and it does focus on young Mr. Kadlec | |
| (and his cute little rear end). Things did go pretty much | |
| exactly as I described them in the BOTD (from my point of view, | |
| since I actually did miss a fair amount that happened | |
| elsewhere), but there are details that happened afterwards which | |
| I intend to share. | |

| Re: Billy Kadlec | |
| By: Jack Date: June 5, 2018, 10:51 am | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| As I said in the BOTD - Billy did get a very hard session over | |
| my lap, and he was worn out before I finished. I did hold and | |
| cuddle him for a bit, then helped him lay down on my bed. I | |
| told him to get up, cleaned up, and put his shorts on when he | |
| was ready, and left him alone for a few minutes, but he'd cried | |
| himself to sleep when I came back, so I covered him with a sheet | |
| and let him sleep. | |
| I came back about 15 minutes later, and he was up and in my | |
| bathroom washing up. He was very sore and stiff, so I helped | |
| him get back into his Fruit of the Looms, and he put on a | |
| t-shirt, then we talked for a while. | |
| I honestly believe that a lot of Billy's problem is that his mom | |
| had told him why he couldn't go to the party, and she'd made the | |
| mistake of being right. The seniors hadn't wanted him there, he | |
| hadn't known anyone, he was bored, and there were kids getting | |
| in trouble. | |
| "What kind of trouble?" I'd asked him. | |
| "Some of them were drinking beer and some of them were smoking." | |
| "What were they smoking?" | |
| "You mean what brand?" | |
| "Were they smoking cigarettes or joints?" | |
| "How would I know?" | |
| I've said before that Billy's not a very good liar, and I'm sure | |
| he wasn't being disingenuous. I'm a bit surprised a 14-year old | |
| doesn't know what pot smells like, but I'm glad too. | |
| Anyway, the reason they were late is that no one wanted to leave | |
| to take them home. They finally got a ride with some kid who | |
| was making a burger run, but then they had to walk the last | |
| part. When he got home, he was tired, and ticked off, and he | |
| didn't want to admit his mom had been right, and so he started | |
| digging. | |
| Billy felt better after finally admitting the truth. He hated | |
| confessing to his mom, but was glad to get the air cleared. | |
| At that point, we went through his bags. Two of them went to | |
| Kaden and Leif's room, but he kept the book bag. While there | |
| are no electronics, I do allow some books. Billy had brought | |
| his Scout Manual, and some books he was using to put together a | |
| list of his projects for this summer. | |
| [hr] | |
| In the BOTD scenario, I implied that Billy was my biological | |
| son. The truth is that he and I have grown very close over the | |
| 15 months that I've known him. His mom and I have come to know | |
| and respect each other, and we do have enough interests in | |
| common that I'd call her a friend. The thing is it's only been | |
| about four years since her husband passed away unexpectedly. | |
| She's only recently shown any interest in starting to date | |
| seriously. On the other hand, she knows that boys really do | |
| need a male figure, and she not only hasn't stood in the way of | |
| our relationship, but she didn't get upset when he started | |
| calling me Dad. She knows that Bill still loves and misses his | |
| bio father, but she knows he needs somewhere here for him now. | |
| I'm actually the one who had 'the talk' with Billy. He was | |
| adolescent when I first met him, but didn't have a real good | |
| idea of what was really going on with his body. | |
| [hr] | |
| I left Billy alone for a while, and came back about 11am. He | |
| was sprawled across my bed, still wearing only briefs and a tee. | |
| He had books spread all around him. | |
| "Billy, you know that seclusion means no company, and that you | |
| eat in here - alone - right?" | |
| "Yes, sir," he said. Billy's very social with the right people, | |
| and he was obviously a bit down about that, but accepting. | |
| "We don't have a definite time when seclusion ends. I play that | |
| somewhat by end. I was thinking of letting you come out around | |
| 7:30 or 8pm this evening. On the other hand, we're having a | |
| formal brunch to celebrate Parker's birthday. Are you willing | |
| to stay in here until 9pm, then go straight to bed with no | |
| games, if I let you come out for a while and join us for brunch? | |
| "Yes, sir!" | |

| I decided to update this one next, because I just got off the | |
| phone with Billy (he mostly goes by Bill these days, but wants | |
| Dad to call him Billy, so...) | |
| Billy will be 21 next month on the Sunday that starts the week | |
| exams start. He and I tossed around some ideas, but he's going | |
| to stay at school, but go have dinner with my older boys (like | |
| Noah, Blake, the twins), and a couple of his close friends. My | |
| boys will take care of driving, so he'll be able to celebrate | |
| with a few drinks without worrying about problems. | |
| His last day of exams is scheduled to be 5 May, and he'll be | |
| coming home the next day. He's probably going to stay here that | |
| first week to hang out with his 'little brothers' and go to work | |
| with me a bit. After that, as my other college kids get home, | |
| he'll probably stay with his mom, but we're still finalizing | |
| summer plans, so that's still up in the air. | |
