Hi Allison. Peer pressure was the most common cause of my problems growing up. Like you when you cut class, I sometimes did not think ahead, but many times I knew what I was doing. I was not the type to look for trouble myself, but looking cool in the eyes of other kids was way too important to me in my teen years, and I was often hanging around with rebellious kids. I was raised strict when younger, but then my parents started to not keep close tabs on what I was doing. Except for some minor screw ups, I did not get caught, so that only encouraged me to follow along with the misbehavior around me. This went on for a few years with no punishments whatsoever.
Do your parents pay close attention to what you do, where you are, who you are with, and so on? If you mess up, what is your chance of getting away with it? I imagine when you are tempted to misbehave, you usually think about "the wall", your dad's paddle, and where the bulls-eyes burn, but if you do get caught up in a moment, or believe you can get away with something, it can turn out very badly like when you cut class. You did mention how the girls had seen some embarrassing evidence in the locker room. It must be a relief to you if they know nothing about what they got you into this time.
Even under the threat of harsh corporal punishment, misbehavior is not always eliminated. My years of acting out for my rebellious peers eventually came to a head, and a bad boy got the spanking of his life. My attitude got changed for real, but not really because I wanted it that way. As it turned out, I later became rebellious again, and the only thing that put down that rebellion was that I grew up and wasn't a child any more. You and your parents are very lucky that you are not a problem child, and that your future is not in jeopardy due to rebellion or anything self-destructive. It sounds to me like you would turn out fine whether your dad spanked you or not, but the strict parenting is still good for you.
