Another week is in the books! In fact, another month
is in the books. Learning Domestic Discipline closed out the final
week of June with a brand new downloadable packet. Did you get your
copy? If you missed anything over the past seven days, we'll get you
all up to speed.
Learning Domestic Discipline Does Not Equal Christian Domestic Discipline
- The title of this post says it all. We attempt to clarify the
difference between our website and the Christian Domestic Discipline
websites out there in cyber land.
Presenting the Downloadable HoH Packet!
- The latest free LDD download is for the all the HoHs out there. It
includes information on lecturing, punishments, reinforcement, and a
whole lot more! It's 50+ pages of information written specifically for
the head of the household in your relationship/marriage. Download your
free copy today! (Or, you know, whenever it's convenient for you.)
Five Things Friday: Holiday Weekend Edition
- We prepare for a personal vacation, and domestic discipline bloggers
all around the world rally behind a very special 6-year old little
girl. She's in our thoughts and prayers, and in our hearts.
- The
LDD Retreat date voting is on hold until things calm down from the
"Rita Skeeter" incident. Perhaps we should add "Rita Skeeter" to the LDD Glossary?
- The July LDD Newsletter will be sent out on July 5th, 2013. You can join the free mailing list right here. (Email is not used for any other purpose.)
Onward we go into July! We hope everyone has a wonderful upcoming week!
Hello Learning Domestic Discipline readers! How was your week? Oh, ours was...interesting.
Thanks for asking. We changed things up a bit on the posting
schedule. Rather than post a Saturday Stories article from a fellow
DD'er this week, we wrote a couple of personal domestic discipline
stories ourselves, one of which was posted on Thursday. If you missed
anything, which would have been p r e t t y tough to do this week, we'll get you all up to speed.
Mailbag Monday: Week 11
- Chelsea sat this round of questions out, so I (Clint) answered
questions about practicing domestic discipline when apart from your
partner for months, whether or not the submissive partner should still
be punished if the HoH "started it", and how my wife and I keep things
"fresh" in our domestic discipline marriage in this week's Mailbag
Monday post.
"Domestic Discipline is Abuse"
- In the first of two personal stories from the heart, I (Clint) talk
about how I reacted when I first heard about the domestic discipline
lifestyle. How similar is it to your initial reaction?
"Domestic Discipline is Abuse?" Part 2: Chelsea's Story
- In a second personal story from the heart, Chelsea opens up about the
things in her life that truly define her as a person, and she
elaborates on how the domestic dynamic really works for anyone who may be visiting LDD for the first time.
- The July LDD Newsletter will be sent out on Friday July 5th, 2013. You can join the free mailing list by clicking here. (Your email address is not used for any other purpose)
- Barring anything unforeseen, we'll be addressing recent media articles by Wednesday.
We hope you all have a wonderful upcoming week! We thank everyone for their continued readership and support. Until next time.
We
had a great week here at Learning Domestic Discipline! We were asked
another tough set of questions (AGAIN) in this week's Mailbag Monday
post, and we're also offering yet another free download for
readers/listeners to enjoy! If you missed anything this week, we'll get
you all caught up with the latest LDD happenings.
Mailbag Monday: Week 10
- We offer our advice on how to take the next step when it comes to
spanking implements, how to handle a difference of opinion when it comes
to punishing children in a unique family dynamic, and what one CD we
would replace in our collections if all of our music was stolen in this
week's round of Mailbag Monday questions.
The Lecturing Podcast - In our second LDD podcast, we cover a very important domestic discipline component -- lecturing.
This podcast even includes a real lecturing example by us (Clint and
Chelsea) within it. You can read more about the new podcast, and
download it for free, by clicking the link to the post (above).
Five Things Friday: The Punishment Edition
- Chelsea talks about her unfortunate punishment-filled week, a fellow
DD blogger talks about "Stress Relief Spankings", and an all-too-real
singles dating site that you never knew existed in this week's Five
Things. Oh, just WAIT until you see this one.

- We've
received a number of requests for the new LDD eBooks. We're working to
make them available on sites such as Lulu, Amazon, etc. as soon as we
possibly can. We'll also make them available on the LDD website in the
very near future. Once they're available, we'll announce it here on the
blog and the LDD Twitter page. We thank you in advance for your interest in the eBooks, and for your patience.
- The
polls to begin voting for the LDD Retreat dates will be posted next
week. If you missed the announcement, the LDD Retreat location will be
Galtinburg/Pigeon Forge, TN.
- We're
working very hard to get the two latest LDD projects launched as soon
as possible -- the DD Wives Club and the Download Site are both in the
works. It shouldn't be too much longer before they're launched!
We
wish all the great dads out there a very happy Father's Day! We hope
you enjoy your day with your loved ones. :) Thank you all for your
readership and support this week! Onward we go to next week....see you
then!
We
slowed things down a bit the past few days as we celebrated our wedding
anniversary week. Thanks to all who wished us a happy anniversary! We
had a wonderful week as a family, and we're ready to get back on track
with Learning Domestic Discipline. Despite us taking the week "off", we
kept our posting schedule on track with three new posts. Take a
look...
Mailbag Monday: Week 9
- It was a mixed bag of interesting questions this week. We answered
questions about why spanking is an important component to the domestic
discipline lifestyle, what planet we'd choose to live on if Earth became
too crowded, and we obliged to a very kind request from a fellow
blogger.
Our Anniversary Week! - We took this week "off" from LDD to celebrate our wedding anniversary! :)
Saturday Stories: "Journey to My Contented Home!"
- The first article from a fellow blogger in blogland was featured in
this week's edition of Saturday Stories. Kat, from the blog "My Contented Home",
shares how making the domestic discipline aspect of her marriage more
intense and structured substantially improved things for her and her
husband.
- We
announced in the June LDD Newsletter that our free download series will
be getting its own site! Look for that to launch later this month.
We're looking forward to next week and we hope you are as well!
It's
Sunday, and here at Learning Domestic Discipline that means it's Weekly
Recap time! We had an exciting week with yet another new feature and
download for readers to enjoy. This time the download isn't something
to read - it's something to listen to! Let's get you all up to speed
with the latest happenings here at LDD.
Mailbag Monday: Week 7
- Working though difficult HoH emotions, getting in a "submissive state
of mind", and leaving marks after spankings are all topics addressed in
this week's round of Mailbag Monday questions - perhaps the most
challenging set of questions to date.
Introducing the Learning Domestic Discipline Podcast Series!
- We do our best to embarrass ourselves in a 45 minute downloadable
podcast that covers the LDD definition of domestic discipline, the pros
and cons to living the lifestyle, and much more. It's our first ever
podcast, so we welcome any and all feedback that will help us in
improving future podcasts!
Five Things Friday: Middle of the Month Edition
- A milestone for Chelsea, two upcoming months full of holidays and
celebrations, and a Pinterest site that will strike your funny bone in
this week's Five Things Friday post.
- Two locations are pulling away in the LDD Retreat voting. It's going to be close at the final tally, so you better come vote and vote often for the location you want! (Voting ends on June 1st, 2013)
- The June LDD Newletter will be sent out on Friday, June 7th. You can subscribe to the mailing list here. (Subscription to the monthly LDD Newsletter is free)
- Under two weeks left to purchase LDD eBooks at promotional rates! Stop on by and find the right package for you! (Promos end June 1st, 2013)
Thanks
for all of your readership and support! We're marching on full steam
ahead into next week, and we hope you'll be there with us!
Another
week is in the books! But, before we get into the weekly recap, we want
to wish all the mothers out there a very happy Mother's Day! As parents
ourselves, we know how hard you work and you deserve this special day-
we hope everyone has a great Mother's Day!
This
week's Mailbag Monday questions were really difficult to answer, and if
you missed the Saturday Stories post, it's one that we feel every wife
wanting or considering domestic discipline should read. We think a lot
of experienced couples will be able to relate to it as well. Let's get
you all caught up with this week's LDD content!
Mailbag Monday: Week 6
- We opened up about some things we personally struggle with in our own
domestic discipline marriage, and we got a question that raised some
concerns in this week's Mailbag Monday. A reader was also kind enough
to make us aware of a great new app!
Punishing When the Wife is Angry
- Clearly it's important that the HoH not punish when he's angry, but
what about times when the wife is angry? We discuss and explore this
topic and offer a way to work through the problem if you ever find
yourself in that situation.
Saturday Stories: "The Reality of Starting Domestic Discipline"
- Guest writer Liza wrote a wonderful article about having false
expectations when first starting out with the domestic discipline
lifestyle in this week's Saturday Stories feature.

- Over 11,000 votes have been cast for the LDD Retreat location. Have you cast your vote yet? Cast your vote here!
- The
DD Wives Club is getting closer to completion. We're building our own
databases, so it's taking a lot longer than anticipated. We know a lot
of you are excited about it, and we are too! Thanks for being so
patient with us as we put it all together. It'll be worth the wait! In
the meantime, you can sign up for the LDD Network here (your membership will automatically transfer over to the DD Wives Club). Here's some information about the LDD Network if you aren't familiar with it.
- Unless
we get an overwhelming number of requests for it, we're going to cancel
our plans to create a comment archive. It's a TON of work to do, and
we're not feeling as though it would be worth the time and effort. We'd
rather use that time and effort on a bigger project that would better
benefit the community. We apologize for any disappointment this may
have caused anyone.
- The LDD Springtime Promotions are currently running, and they offer TWO new products! Find the right package for you! (Promos end on June 1st, 2013)
We're looking forward to next week! See you all tomorrow for Week 7 of Mailbag Monday.
We
kicked off the month of May with a brand new free download! The LDD
Domestic Discipline Punishment Journal example and template are now
available to download for free by clicking here. If there's anything else you missed this week, we'll get you all up to speed with the latest LDD content.
Mailbag Monday: Week 5
- We answered questions about the best way to bring DD into an
established relationship, whether or not DD can be effective without
spankings involved, and we addressed a question about punishing children
in this week's edition of Mailbag Monday.
Domestic Discipline Punishment Journals
- In our latest free LDD download series, we explain what domestic
discipline journals are and Chelsea goes into detail about a recent
punishment in the downloadable journal example and template file.
Five Things Friday: Birthday Celebration Edition!
- Two spankings, a long lost spanking implement found, and a year old
blogland post that every wife wanting DD should read. Oh, and let us
not forget, Chelsea's birthday was Friday as well! Kool & the Gang
came to the party, and we all brought our good times, and our laughter
too!
- The LDD Springtime Promos offer TWO exciting new products! Check out what's new! (Promos end on June 1st, 2013)
- Our
2nd Learning Domestic Discipline newsletter was sent out this past
Friday with an exciting announcement. Learning Domestic Discipline will
be offering podcasts beginning soon! Stay tuned for more information.
- Voting for the first ever domestic discipline retreat location is underway. Where do you want the LDD Retreat to be held? Click here to vote!
See you all next week! Have a great week everyone! :)
