Seems that show didn't do to well for these guys. Not sure if Will Hayden is out on bond or what, but he apparently raped a couple of minor girls. He's one that should be hung. This situation here about spanking a kid with a belt COULD BE a non issue. Spanking is one thing, whaling on a kid with a belt is another and should be punishable.
Glad I live in OK. I was pist at this situation in the first place but my wife at the time, had spanked my daughter which I had told her, IF it comes time for that, I'll be the one to do it. You can discipline her in any other way but not spanking. Our son, different story, you can spank him but IMO it's the blood parent that takes care of that. I also reserve spanking for last restort or nature of the what was done wrong. I can count on 1 hand how many times both of my kids were spanked and they are well behaved, well mannered kids, now adults. At any rate, the wife spanked my daughter. She calls her mother. Her mother comes over with the cops to take my daughter away and trying to get my wife arrested. A female cop and daughters mother looked at her ass and the cop says, yes her ass is red in couple of spots. Her mother said something, and the cop says, yeah, looks like she got a spanking. Mother says, well she shouldn't have got spanked, I was the one that told her she didn't have to do what her step mother said. The cop looked at her and said, if you were a real mother, you'd have custody of this kid and you could make those decisions, but you're not. But her dad has said she is not to spank our daughter. Cop says, regardless of what dad says, that is his wife, your daughter's step mother, and she is entitled to discipline a child living in her household, so her father and her step mother can work that out, but there's not been a crime committed here, that's discipline. Daughters mother was so pissed and I loved every second of it.
