Congratulations to the parents:
The BIBLE say, don't spare the rod and spoil the child.

Children are just out of hand.

It is ignorant parents like you who are out of hand. Abuse of children is unforgivable and the parents if guilty should rot in jail. Discipline is one thing but beating a kid to the point they get 10 days sick leave is awful. You the parent have failed if all you can do to deal with your Child's behavior is beat them to a pulp. All parents should have to take an active parenting cla** to see that a dictator like parenting style will only lead to rebellion and jail time.

you need prayer is right, but prayer helps NOT AT ALL...

I guess you never read the bible because no where in the bible you can read, don't spare the rod and spoil the child.

Stop chatting non sense. Its a saying.

ok so since the parents will be in jail what will this kid become who wil be there for him when he do something wrong, he will be on the rd doing craziness well the judge who ever send these parents away take this kid under their guidance in their own house.

To you need a prayer.

You are not only ignorant, you are a Jacka**.

I raised 6 wonderful children, and the belt hanging in the corner
was my eyes when I was not there.

We cal it RESPECT.

Yes the bible said don't spare the rod but what can a four year old done to be so physical abused? Yes I have beaten my son on his leg with a belt or a branch not a 4yrs old. And today he is a respectful man and thanked me the way I brought him up.

Investigation is okay, but sending parents to jail is total nonsense. Those children will bawl water to poil jam when they need those parents when others are really abusing them. Council the parents and not send them to jail. That judge trust me, will not take those children to live in his/her own household, hypocrites :o :sad: ;-)

What about children that abuse their parents?? I know of an haitian boy that beat his father and mother, gendarme came several times there, but nothing happen, he is still playing bad and fighten everybody with his mother backing him up. What do we call this?????

DISCIPLINE YES, ABUSE NO.

Before we all start talking we should know what the problem is. Maybe there is a problem and they take it out on the children.
well i beat my children and today I just have to look and they know what time it is. but it also depends how you raise your child. But some of us parents when the children do something from small we tend to laugh and when they get bigger we can't control them. The poor child could not take the blows no more and no one else to turn too so he decided to go to the gardarmes.

everyone here have an opinion about this and that, the mother abuse her son, she use her childrend like they are big men in the house ! and her jamaica husband beat them like they are adults, she have a daughter that had to be taking away before she kill her !!!

the law is very much wrong to leave criminals free like that out, i had a boyfriend that use to beat my orther kids like an animal and his son he never touch him this is the same case ! i got rid of him quick

it's how u rise your childrend and how you respect your self that mother those not have the minimum value about a mother, those are what we call "caf mamam"

it's sad but what had happen if they beat the kid and he lost and Eye ?? what had happen is they kill him ?? ohhh the entire sxm would be saying ohh my they should have been in prison etc .. but too late soo the law is very easy in this country had it been in NYC they could be behind bars for child abuse

There is a BIG difference between discipline and abuse! When I was young, my siblings and I got disciplined with a belt or whatever was available at the time (Believe me it was well deserved!) and it did teach us. We were never abused by my mother. Parents nowadays have to learn that fine line between discipline and abuse. Hell we even used to get hit with a ruler in school by the Frathers and Nuns on our hands or legs. But as with my mother the frather and nuns were NOT taking their Frustrations out on us, they were disciplining us and teaching us at the same time!

@ Acebow, you are so right. At times you think back and smile. For if our parents were not stricked and the teachers also, there would have been more messed up grown adults now. so clapping a child, a ruler on the palm of the hands or legs will kill no one. Beating a child to the point of injuries is abuse and this should not be tolerated. Parents are frustrated with the kids nowadays because the children are in their way and costly at that. So when anger builds up, you have to vent and the kids pay the price.

I dislike when people say if this is the US, what would happen.
We are 35 square miles, we cannot average ourselves with these big places.

However since cafmaman went there.
The US have the most children that shoot out in schools, and kill so many, did the law help.

If they had parents that switched them, so many youngsters would not die in school shootings.

Yes maybe this couple has a problem, but DON'T say:
Parents can't beat children.
All the baby boomers, got cut a**es, today they are the best
in the world.

Fear, this is what our kids don't have

A good cut-a**, a crop a licks preferably with a Tamon whip , this is what they are begging us to give them!

But, we get so much licks when we wuz young, and Lord, we love our children so much, we Xian do da

That is why when you know your kids are behaving bad, call the police to come to your house. When they come give them a choice to either go with the child, or witness you cut the child a**

It is one or the other, prosecutors can say hat they want, this is why children going mad, because they begging fo licks, and we ain't giving them

Some of you people here just don't get it. stop changing the topic!. the main issue here is that the parents were abusing the child and child abuse is against the law.
child abuse is the same reason why so many children turn against their own parents and give them a brutal beat down.

to TJ

You sound like a spoil child
If you were mine, YES, CUT a**,
we are not saying ABUSE.....we say: CUT a**

@ to the one that answered to it is so!!!!! You're the one that is chatting nonsense and on top of that you're also the one that doesn't read your bible; you should check out the book of proverbs ch 13:24, 22:15, and 29:15. These verses does teach about sparing the rod and spoiling the child.
Now back to the abusive parents the bible says to correct your children not abuse them o.k.!!! Children is a blessing from God not an inconvenience to parents. If you are not cut out to be a proper parent then you should not have gotten any children. There are many people out there that can't have kids of their own and some people who are blessed with kids are just doing a terrible job. If this child was abused they should lost their @sses in jail for real.

Yes, Buttercup, and then who takes are of that child?
How will the relationship be after the parents are released from jail?

If the parents are proved to be abusive, then why not offer them treatment by educating them on different ways how to deal with problematic children?

Fact of the matter is, everything in this world is based on, discipline and social values. Don't you think that teachers, doctors, police officers, an judges would like to cuss-up and buss some good bad words on people who act stupid an rude?

This is not expected nor accepted because of all our social values , rules ect. And just like these people need to adhere to the rules and values, the damm children need to behave, or they will simply get a "wash-out"

Discipline all the way
Take away that cell phone from the child
Put a pa**word on all home computers
Put away the playstation, X-box, and DS-games
Set rules and times when they are allowed to watch tv
Wake up that child and take them to church every sunday
If they don't want to clean their bedroom, put every damm thing outside, and force them to mop the room and put back everything orderly
Don't them go sleep without washing the dishes
Stop buying all these expenses brand name sneakers, which we can't afford anyway
Make them wear their pants above their a**.
Stop trying to satisfy the child by buying all these fashion clothes just to be in style. children grow fast, before you know it, the clothes can't fit them anymore

I guess some of you will think I am harsh, but the kids who excel the best are those who are brought up under these conditions

Yes, it is so that parents have an obligation towards children, but children should also show much more appreciation for the hard sacrifice parents make in these difficult times

Once the behavior of the child improves, and they are performing satisfactory, we the parents should also show appreciation by rewarding that child

It is all about give and take.

In the end, the parents have it in their hands to control things
If you apply some of these strict rules, you may not have to give them a cut-a**. Occasionally, you will have a child, who needs to make to connection between "Licks and Listening"
