A judge who is a father, beats his own daughter with a belt

Elected in 2001, Adams draws an annual salary of $138,055 as Aransas County's top judge. He dealt with at least 349 family law cases in the past year, nearly 50 of which involved state caseworkers seeking to determine whether parents were fit to raise their children.

 

She sounds like the typical abused child acting out.

Good thing they sent her home with her parents.

 

When I was about 8 I figured out that if I turned around and looked at my Mom in the eyes while she spanked me she'd quickly stop. She'd start crying and blaming herself for my bad behavior, which I didn't like, but at least I wasn't getting hit. It did make me reflect/think which was probably important baby steps towards growing up and even building the relationship we now have as adults. I'd never think of trying the eye thing on Pops.

STOMP

 

My sisters and I got hit with belts, a special wooden paddle that was there for nothing but spanking (which eventually broke on my sister), tree branches, my whiffle ball bat while we were camping, and electrical chords. I don't blame my parents, as that is how they were raised and tought to deal with children. But, all of that was completely useless and damaging. Sometime, my mom would just have me sit against a wall for a period of time, where I was unable to talk or move. That was way more effective. I don't really hold anything against them, but that was the wrong way to deal with things. Honestly.

 

who hasnt?

rape fetishes are fun too

 

all this being said, it is likely that abusive parents feel their behavior is ok because of conversations like "well my dad beat me, and im a better person for it"

meh, this guy is an animal, makes me sick

 

That's why torture and genocide are okay too.

 

Next time trust your gut feeling, not your indoctrination.

 

No kidding.

My Niece and her husband had been indoctrinated to never, ever spank their children. They abided by that rule for their first three children....all girls. Then, they had a boy. The kid ran a muck. Drove them crazy. Then, one day, Peter (the father) had had enough and applied a firm swat on the seat of the kid's pants (the boy was 4 at the time). Instant change of behavior. There is now peace in the household. The boy is doing great......as are the rest of the family.

 

That video was sick. What a coward.

I did. And did what was right.

 

I thought of this thread when I saw this

Don't believe it for a second. Someday, somewhere, people are going to die for Peter's sins.

"He seemed like such a nice, quiet young man..."

 

Watched the video last night and the belt whipping was excessive. But I do agree that a parent can use a belt. But I think what bothered me more was watching the aftermath video interview with the girl and the mother. Being through some terrible "custody battles"; you can see that the mother and daughter were trying to get publicity. They wanted their 10 minutes of fame. And it was almost like this was "staged" too. She put up a greater fight so her dad would get even more angry. He just wanted her to lay on the bed to take her punishment. She refused and kept refusing until he was so upset, he lost control.

Also, she was 16; which I think is way too old to whip with a belt. I would have just gone in her room, unplugged her computer and taken it away from her for a few months.
