I was whipped with belts, razor straps and cedar switches as a kid, but never like that.
I've spanked all three of my kids numerous times, but never with anything but my hand and only on their butt.
In this State if you were to spank your kids in any manner other than with your hand on their butt, you most certainly run the risk of losing your children to child protective services, as they deem it abuse.
What that video displayed was not discipline, but abuse pure and simple. If he had done that to someone outside of his daughter, he would have been charged with assault in the 1st degree and he would have been looking at a minimum of 60 months or more in prison here. What he really needs is good caning and to be hung by the neck with his favorite belt.
Kids need spankings, but they don't need to be abused or assaulted for their punishment.
