Why you ask?
When I was a kid if Mom or Dad said "No" in the grocery store there was no screaming or crying and if you did you got your butt busted right then and there or later but you know it was coming. Kids knew better. No meant NO. Not these spoiled brat snowflakes.
Thank you Mr. Mexican man for telling it like it should be "spare the rod and make snowflakes of or kids" (spoil the child but you get the point)
The kid stopped crying. Hmmmm.
Which is why are kids are completely spoiled brats and uncontrollable. We let them get away with murder today. Nobody can punish a child unless it is some time out politically correct crap.
A strange man spanks someone else’s kid and a number of FReepers express support.
Good grief, some people are total jerks.
“The child stopped crying and was in shock...”
So it worked.
Because that's what they do in Mexico, and no doubt this POS was going to drive home drunk.
Right attitude, wrong solution.
In a very small town where everyone knows everyone and even small kids know neighbor town folk personally, a non-parent might be able to pull off such a spanking. An anonymous person cannot pull it off without repercussions.
I remember being spanked once by a neighbor, along with a playmate, while at that neighbors house. When it was reported to my mom she commented that it must have been my fault; the neighbor would not have done it if I didn’t deserve it.
This Dad in Georgia sounds likes real femmy punk, allowing some drunk Mexican to put his hands on and beat on his kid....wow.
This is who some on this thread are supporting. lol...
Some drunk Mexican who likely would have driven away from the store drunk as a skunk...
The man would have been better off telling the parent to shut his brat up-but otherwise I agree entirely with your assessment-no one has the right to inflict their ill behaved kids on others in a public venue. I brought up my cub the same way as my mom did me and my sibling-just as we did, my cub knew the phrase “just wait till I get you to the truck” meant stop it now or get your butt smacked somewhere between here and the parking lot. If I see a parent discipline a kid in the grocery store out here, I always thank them for being a responsible parent.
He was out of line.
You ought to start a charity for all the drunken Mexicans in the U.S. who decide to put their hands on other people's little kids and beat on them.
“The child stopped crying and was in shock, he said.”
Their next visit to the store, this child will not ask for a candy bar while standing in line. Children are often smarter than their parents.
You hit my kid and I wont stay so calm
A drunken 60ish man....see how well spanking works
'This is what we do to kids in Mexico.'
Then why are they running wild all over California?
""After allegedly trying to resist arrest, Martinez is said to have kicked cars and been aggressive as he as taken to the patrol car.""
""The drunken Mexican is being held on charges including battery, child cruelty, disorderly conduct, obstructing officers and violating probation.""
Ya got some weird MAGA thing going on there...lol...
hit his son three times on the backside. The child stopped crying and was in shock, he said.
Doing the job that Americans don't want to do................
Right or wrong I wouldn’t have allowed anyone, much less a drunk Mexican, to mess with my kid. I tend to get very unreasonable real quick when someone messes with members of my family.
Totally disagree, I would be outraged if a drunken stranger smacked my toddler three times. Unacceptable behavior.
It's not so much what you don't know that will get you in trouble, it's what you know that ain't so. I have nothing to lose anymore. Nothing. It might be better if you state what you think is right or wrong about the situation without the threats. Now, some of us know what you plan to do and if you do it....
I would never spank anyone’s kid, but I have on occasion told parents to put on their dad pants and straighten their kid out.
