Sorry, won't fly. Larry and I have raised four - two of his and two of mine, all in the same household. They are very different from each other, both now and then. You don't just stamp out children like cookies and it's not always the parents' fault when some kid goes off their rocker.

What I will suggest is that if this girl is 23 and daddy is still paying her bills and buying her a Mercedes, that may indeed have something to do with why she's trying to blackmail him now. Rather than being too tough on her, I will submit that perhaps he wasn't tough enough.

We have a whinnnahhhhh! :dingding: My brother and I were raised in the same house with the same parents at the same time and you couldn't have two adults that are more UNalike. My kids are 7 and almost 10 and I can tell now that they are going to be totally different. Kids are little people and as my own kids grow and the children of my friends grow I am totally convinced that parenting (different styles, beliefs, what have you) has VERY little to do with how your kid is going to turn out. They are going to be who they want to be. I'm no more a decent adult because my mother beat the crap out of me than my brother is a piece of shiz because she beat the crap out of him.....

WRONG. That's a major jump in assumption. You have no idea how many times he DID control his temper, and *didn't* beat the chit out of her. All you saw and know about is this particular time that he went off and started whaling on her. For all you know, it was an isolated incident.

Is it ok for a husband or wife to beat on the other if it is an isolated incident? After all they are older and can handle it better.

If you equate your daughter to your wife, you have some pretty serious psychological problems.

Sounds like to.me she tried to blackmail a judge, whether what he did was right or wrong SHE should be going to jail.

Well, what if someone comes into his courtroom and says, your honor, I lost my temper when I threw my two year old into the wall, I didn't do that the last 98984 times he annoyed the hell out of me, I showed tons of restraint..it was an isolated incident.

Why, when someone's argument is going down for the last time, do they feel the need to ratchet up and concoct all sorts of ad hominem scenarios that have absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand?

Anyway, I'm done with this subject. You all feel free to ramble on about spouses and two year olds in your zeal to demonize someone you know nothing about. Easier than admitting you might be wrong, eh?

I think it is weird he "spanked" his 16 yo with a belt and involved other family members, and that he was so angry and foul. that's what I saw, and what I think. No matter WHY she released the tape, or how many times he ignored her being a brat before, it's still weird and strange...and IMO makes him unsuitable to be in charge of sentencing other people who harm their children who may have just "lost their temper" as well. I don't care to speculate anything about their family dysfunction beyond that. :shrug:

It seems to me that she probably pissed him off beyond belief and knew what kind of reaction she would get then purposely positioned herself in front of her camera and then continued to disobey him.... This is one instance that had been captured. If it was continually happening, don't you think since she had the where-with-all to tape in the first place, she would tape more than one instance? Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't hit my kid with a belt, but that's me. Different strokes for different folks!

You have a valid point, LT. However, I don't see the "out of control." That was in no way, shape, or form (on the face of it) "out of control." He was pissed, that much is clear. He was frustrated, and that was pissing him off. I think we all understand that. When I was 16, my father decided I was old enough to be hit like a man. With his fist. Sometimes in the face. Did I mention he out-weighed my by nearly 100 pounds? Did I also mention that he had worked hard, physically, all his life? The man was not fat. He was strong as an ox. Was he out of control? Compared to the judge, absolutely? Did I die in childhood? Not that I can tell. So what is "out of control?"

Obviously your perception of what is normal and what is out of control is pretty shewed.

What harm did he cause his daughter?

Absolutely none evidenced by the video.
