Quote:As a product of a child who came from a mother and father who got whippin's as early as 6 years old, I learned early on how not to break the rules, and always tell the truth.


This may come to a shock as some, but I have seen parents spank, or whip their toddlers as young as the baby we learned of in this report.


The only difference is it involved a athlete and it became public.


For the record, I have 2 daughters, and I have never, or will spank them, because I leave that duty to the mother who we both discussed will only spank them to stop any bad behavior from continuing.

That's great, but theres a difference between spanking and what AP did. You don't have to abuse your child to teach them how to not lie, be responsible, do their homework, not back talk, etc... as a society we should strive to be better.


It isn't the only difference that he is a public figure. Anyone who took their kid in to the Dr would probably have child services called on them with the marks that were left on that 4 year old. Public eye or spotlight is bigger sure, but to pretend a regular person wouldn't be in deep [BLEEP] is being disingenuous.
