C'mon, if that was the case, her father would have reframed from spanking her. I am sorry if no one sees through her manipulation. I meant that I wonder if you were in his shoes, but people see this case differently. I meant no harm in saying this. | |

That video shows a father losing his temper and beating on his daughter.
There is "spanking" and there is "beating".
That was a beat down.
If she had just pushed grandma down a flight of stairs to steal her money...then I would justify the beat down.

Its still shady as hell of her to post this 7 years later. Since she bothered to record it, she could have turned it over to the police and gotten some protection or relief when she was 16.
I also find it odd that she holds no ill will toward her mother who obviously encouraged these whippings. Bump all that "I was under his control" nonsense. As the mother, you are more bound to your child than the father is and if the mother went along with the whippings then she should be thrown to the media hounds just like this judge.

Well which is worse?
1. A child respecting the parents out of fear.
OR
2. A child disrespecting the parents out of unruliness AND dishonor.

I got the belt. My brother got the belt. And my child will surely get the belt if necessary.
Mom and Dad mixed as much love as they did fear in us and we turned out fine. If you did something that required such punishment, then so be it.
Far too many parents have lost complete control over their chilldren because they won't spank their children. I have seen it first hand how parents become enablers to their childrens off behavior only to become tired, angry, frustrated and depressed at how their child has turned out.
If you instill solid values and they then decide that value system means nothing to them, then they should be punished accordingly.
And Yes...corporal punishment should be back in schools as well. Child services my ass!!! I wish one of them would knock on my door and tell me how to raise my child while prisons are FULL of those that didn't have any parental controls!
And let my child make a "threat" to call child services...I will drop them off at the juvenile detention center MYSELF!!

So, because you love your kids, are you sayiing that by punishing them, you don't love them? "Love is like peeing in your pants, everyone sees it but only you feel its warmth" | |

If peeps brought them up properly in the firsy place they wouldn't put you in the position of maybe punishing them. They would have to much respect and wouldn't want to bring shame on themselves and you...there are far better ways to get your point across than lashing out........ | |

Um....the Thanksgiving holiday has absolutely nothing to do with disciplining your children nor does it have anything to do with being pious. Most people discipline their children according to how they themselves were disciplined. You either follow in your parents' footsteps or you don't. Some forms of child rearing are cultural in nature. I've noticed people from the southern most part of the US are more likely to spank than northerners.
That's nice that you love your children and don't condone spanking and "juvenile detention" as you put it but if your kids grow up and start acting like monsters, don't say we didn't warn you. I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!

Some kids don't respond to firm "discussion" or timeout. I agree that "lashing out" is not a good first start in dealing with an unruly child but lets not pretent like the outside world isn't competing with you to bring your child up properly. This girl was stealing and I'm sure her father the judge did not teach her to do that. I've seen kids who grew up in the same home and one got the belt while the other didn't yet the non-spanked kid turned out to be the bad child.
Just saying there is no 100% perfect way to bring up a child and spanking does not have to be a bad thing. Not all parents who spank do so in the same manner that this Judge did. I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!

Please don't lump all Americans in the same boat when it comes to the disciplining of children. That is too complex a subject to generalize and we are too vast and diverse a nation to judge in that way. I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!

True, there is. But, when you really think about it, most parents were babies themselves when they had their children, so most don't have a clue. Also, in this day and age, most kids don't give two shits, about a "time out" or having something taken away from them. This man obviously got tired of talking to his daughter and did what he thought was best. Had it really been abuse, he would have used a closed hand and hit her all about her face... That is abuse. What was on that video, was far from abuse....smh.

Not trying to offend anyone but reading this thread it appears as if corporal punishment for children is more accepted and practiced by blacks than whites , rather than it having to do with region

well imo, corporal punishment upon a child should be used at the very last resort. talking and taking away privledges is as effective as hitting, and less taxing on all parties involved. in the video, i feel it is really a case of child abuse. when both parents gang up to punish it's demeaning and traumatic to the child. also when the father left the room, the punishment should have been over. no excuse for coming back into the room. imo he (the father) and she (the mother) should both be held accountable in the courts for domestic violence and child abuse. nothing less. i really felt sorry for the girl, whether the whole thing is staged or not! how would anyone know if she did not record this incident on video. many times people do not believe such accountings from the victim, or they do not want to get involved. “Transracial is a term that has long since been defined as the adoption of a child that is of a different race than the adoptive parents,” : https://thinkprogress.org...fb6e18544a | |
