I know the feeling only too well, I'm sure you guys can imagine what I'll do to the -Expletive deleted- That intentionaly ran over my 2 year old son.
But I also feel that you should'nt tackle violence with violence in these cases, especially when condemning the guy for using violence.

Either way, whats done is done, its in the hands of the authorities now.

and after he's had a good beating... he'll probably take it out on the kid. in fact he could be doing (alledgedly) what his father did to him 30 years ago.

very sad when you look at people like ralph bulger who has lived with years of torment after having his kid murdered. some parents take their kids for granted - they should remember how if their kid is safe and well - then they should be greatful.

Hope the little one is ok by the way.

This is why I've said the temptation to take it out on him would be strong - I'm not saying I would do it as I've never never been in such an emotional situation, thankfully.

I'm glad they got the bar steward.

Discipline in children is one of the most difficult things ever to talk about because everyone has very strong views on the subject, but knocking the living $h1te out of a child is not reasonable to any normal person, nor is screaming obsenities at the poor child.

A child normally acts that way because they are trying to attract attention to themselves. The best answer is to ignore the behavior (and they'll get bored and settle down and behave)

OT sorry, but yeah he's mending great.

the sad part is, the "dad" will be free to do it again!!

IF the police do anything, they`ve to get the CPS to take action, got to find staff from the store to be witness (which most wont)

then IF it goes to court some booze soaked judge will give him something like 2 month, 100 hours community, or £50 fine...

the "mother" will take him back as she loves him and he`s promised never to do it again, the social workers will go once a month for 1 hour to "work with the family"....

where infact he should be given 12 month, and an order NEVER to be alone with a child again.

Oh and that goes for if it was the mother as well.

Or then again personally jail him for 3years but while in Jail force him to see a shrink and have them talk over WHY he does that, in the end he could be a abused person himself who does not know any better.

While what he has done is VERY wrong, meeting him with violence is a bad move as probally when he was a child he has had worse and the older he gets the worse he will be to his children.

Sadly this man does not need jailing he needs help.
