Regardless of how one feels about this beating or spanking in general the girl IMO was clearly showboating. She set up the camera and then did a bunch of acting. She purposely defied her parent’s orders to bend over properly so she would receive the beating on her behind. She knew the tape was rolling and played the situation.

She knew EXACTLY what she was doing and why.[/quote]

Yeah, she should have bent over properly like a woman in order to take a beating from a sadistic monster.

It’s her fault for making him look bad.

I didn’t stick up for the dad. Even though I believe in corporal punishment the dad was clearly out of line.

But she specifically went out of her way to make it turn out as bad as possible. FOR THE CAMERA.

Sorry Push. That doesn’t matter…

Now you’re gettin all Christine-ish on me. I didn’t say it mattered. I said it HAPPENED.

I said the dad was out of line. I said the daughter was playing it up for the camera.

I said BOTH those things.

For the record, my kids are 22 and 19 and I am very close to both of them. They don’t wish me dead, so no worries there.[/quote]

Well, then you didn’t beat the ever living fuck out of them… No worries. If you did, they would either hate your guts, or be totally dysfunctional in the world.
I’d never figure you for an abuser. Nobody is a perfect parent, abuse is clear.

There’s nothing like the real thing… But I do think some people get it. It wasn’t a common occurrence. It was very infrequent actually, but the line was cross a couple of times. It’s memorable though.

Nope, my kids never got a beating like that one nor did I ever get one like that one.

The “projecting” that happens on a thread like this one is when people are so horrified by the actions of LoseHisMind that they think all parents who spank are just one small step away from emulating him.[/quote]

Actually, this thread hasn’t devolved (to my surprise) into a discussion of corporal punishment overall.

It has pretty much stayed on topic (other than our brief international and lingerie forays) discussing whether or not this instance is abuse.

Just because you played it up when you were being beat, doesn’t mean that she was.

Pat keep reading. [/quote]

I was just messin’ around…[/quote]

I know.

Dahmer had to have some form of mental illness not yet identified (bat shit crazy is not a DSM IV approved diagnosis) in the psychiatric field. I know there is serious studies going into serial murders and especially ones who eat there victims.

Just take a moment to imagine what his parents have to deal with in life?

He was tortured by his mom for years…

I dunno if beating your child is a good idea. Even if kids do something wrong, that is not an excuse to use physical punishment. In your head you might think that it is ok, as long as it is justified by the level of misbehavior the child makes.

From all the countries I’ve been, the ones that have this belief that its ok to spank your kid are the US and Mexico… one likes to make war all over the world, the other likes to make war on its own land with its own ppl. So yeah, i think that is not the correct strategy for educating a child, I mean if he did something so wrong that it deserves physical punishment then you need to hit yourself for not knowing how to raise a kid and just procreating because you are horny.

In japan for example,they don´t spank or beat their kids, and they seem to be doing ok, their crime rate is very low and in general they are very friendly ppl. [/quote]

hahahahahaahahaahahahaa

Yea cause Japan never waged war, Or Germany or Italy.

hahahahaahahaahahahaahahaahaha

I’m not reading 8 pages of bullshit though b/c we all know this place (from the other posts) is polluted with you idiots that think this is okay and oh yea, “I got beat worse and look at me I’m okay”. Those of you that think this is okay are plain fucking retarded. Retarded.

Judging by the other “corporal punishment vids/threads” (abuse actually), the McDonald’s beat down and most recently the “shoplifting” story, some of you dunces have no sense of proportion. If you’re defending these parents (and I’m sure a few of you are), I don’t know who you are (because I haven’t read the thread), you’re fucking stupid.

I saw the video, nothing else needed to be said. Abuse plain and simple. If that’s the way you parent you’re a piece of shit. If I beat my kid like that, they were involved in a felony and somebody ended up dead.[/quote]

It’s abuse, but you’d do it in some circumstances? So it’s okay to “abuse” children sometimes? regardless, we don’t really know the circumstances.

I also already said I disagreed with the way it was done.

And I heard this morning, according to the dad, the daughter just released the video because he was cutting back on her funding after she dropped out of college.

It reeks of it.

And that’s coming from someone who used to do it. I used to caterwaul like you wouldn’t believe. It was a ploy.

Humorous story along those lines:

I went to a private school that still (rarely) employed corporal punishment. I was a senior in high school and only a few short weeks from graduating.

I got a detention for too many tardies or such and was supposed to serve my time in detention hall. I didn’t want to do the time so I went to the dean and told him the student handbook says I can get a spanking or a detention for bad behavior.

I told him I wanted the spanking. Mind you I was 17 years old and about to leave home and school and be on my way in this big, bright, bold, beautiful world.

He agreed to give it to me.

He got out the official paddle.

I bent over his chair.

He whacked me.

I screamed SO loud someone almost pulled the fire alarm thinking there was a terrorist attack or something going on.

He paused.

He whacked me again.

I screamed louder yet. I wanted every single kid in the school to hear me so that I could up my notoriety status.

He paused.

And paused.

He whacked me again.

This time I hollered like the demons from hell were feasting on my flesh without letting me die.

My buddies told me later how funny it was and that all the students in the school were wondering about all the mayhem they heard.

Fact of the matter is I hated that dean for other reasons and was specifically trying to make him look bad and me look funny.

I don’t know if he DID look bad but I sure tried.

Now I don’t know for sure if this 16 year old judge’s daughter was for trying to make dad look bad but she sure did. And he did it to himself as well.

I know the difference between a paddle, wooden spoon, and a belt. It wasn’t a pattern fortunately, but the line was cross a handful of times. That was enough…
A paddlin’ I am alright with that, smack across the mouth, no problem. If you’re rearing back and leaving marks, that’s a problem.

No I wouldn’t. I put forth an unrealistic scenario to illustrate that I wouldn’t.

Of course, if I were Casey Anthony’s dad, yeah, maybe then. If he were to do that in my presence I think I would just politely wait my turn. But otherwise, hell no.

According to the mom part of it was that he was gunning for custody of her 10 year old sister. The fact that he’s a family court judge, they needed a trump card to keep that from happening. This ought to do it.

I’ve had it long since 1990. I cut it somewhat short in '93. Then in '05 I cut 6" off it (to Cobain length).
This is the shortest it’s been since the 80’s!
