27-11=too young to be a mom
Know her and from what she has sd, he hits her all thr time and even busted her glasses
Sometimes you got to bust your kids ass, old fashioned
You’re right. This is a non-issue. Parental discipline, direct physical style is most effective. It worked for eons, until the perversion of Alpha-FemiNazi , Betamale-Castrate/Eunuch & Homo/Lesbo Culture got control, with ineffective kickback.
Hitting children is the reason why everyone behaves the way they do now. I hope your children or grandchildren are no where near you. 35, great job, no record, awesome family. My parents didn’t have to abuse me to get there.
Abuse? Really….the kids today have no consequences and that is why they are all a mess. He deserved it and she needs a go fund me to help her
My dad told me when my boys were little that spanking doesn’t work. He tried it with my older brothers and he was of the Silent Generation, so not even a Baby Boomer. I’m one of eight. We all grew up to be responsible adults not in trouble with the law and have good relationships with our own children. I can’t imagine hitting my 11 yo grandson with anything, let alone a belt. How brutal! If that boy hits his mom it’s probably because that’s how he’s learned to express his anger.
I got it as a kid, made me think twice!
I’m grateful for the times I got the belt. I never played with matches, shoplifted or used the F bomb at siblings after the belt. Antifa is almost 100% populated by the timeout generation.
Anti-fascism is awful!
Of all the crimes being committed, and a lot worse get off with nothing,
This shouldn’t be a felony, hell even a misdemeanor.
GET RID Of woke, PC libtards in office and schools.
The fact all these people find this okay is soooo troubling. Locking a 11yr old out of the house? Smashing a piggy bank over their head?? You boomers want to justify abuse so badly. You really think her beating her child is the best way to punish??
Here’s a tissue, meow mix
What’s meow mix? Do we speak English anymore? Or just punk?
In English please.
I was beaten with a belt from 5 yrs until 14 years. By my father. My brother never seem to get beat much. Mostly only me. I was adopted at birth and did not attach with my adopted mother only my adopted father who beat me. He was controlling and abusive up until 89 when he just passed.
Well I love and miss him I don’t miss the abuse & the control. He arrested my development and I’m a wreck as an adult.
Please find better ways to work things out. What my father did to me caused me to turn around and do a little bit to mine. It makes me sick. It’s time we break these cycles. We must do better. We are now a big broken traumatized society.
All you people rooting for and condoning what this girl did to her child… You’re all the problem in society today. If you would rather beat your child than find a way to teach your child without harm or trauma, then you’re an ugly piece of shit.
I took taekwondo in middle school and high school. My father went to beat me and got heavy-handed when I was around 15. I punched him gut knocked the wind out of him. He dropped his knees.
He never beat me again although he was still controlling as hell.
Sorry yoy were abused as a child. But this is NOT what people are saying. Get your shit together already. Its been how long?…. society is fucked today because we’re not allowed to spank, or teach lessons. Get over yourself.
Remember when someone got the “paddle” at school? Lack of discipline has left us
where we are now.
My mother broke those big decorative wooden spoons and forks over my bottom from hitting me with them.
This isn’t 1950s discipline described in this article. She’s abusing her children, who need protection.
I had to go pick my own switch off the tree to get my ass kicked with. This is why kids are such entitled bitches now. I feel sorry for mom here. Just trying to discipline her kids
Violent ended response. Total result of you being abused as a child. We’re all sorry for you.
You’ve Got To Be Kidding, The More Discipline In The Home! The Less Crime In The Streets. We Can’t Spank Our Children But The Police Can Kill Them?!
I know her she lived in Rochester I’ve seen pictures of how she beat her kids one time she beat him so bad she broke his head open they didn’t say she got two other kids and pregnant and she don’t believe in getting her kids vaccinated she stays in the house and smokes weed all day she doesn’t work and she sleeps with guys and continuously has babies. The sad part about it is two of the kids. Father is a really good dad. She took them kids from Rochester. she has multiple CPS cases open what I’m trying to say is CPS failed these kids don’t give them back to her. She’s going to be the one to kill them after she split the little boys head open with a buzz Lightyear doll. She didn’t even bring them to the doctors. She duct tape that kids head closed and didn’t open the door to CPS. They can’t come in your house if you don’t answer the door and then she ran off to Wisconsin. She’s going to kill one of her kids there’s no hope for this woman
Keep talking dale your just a child rapist shes young you abused her as well and the kids
