I would gladly pull the lever on this POS..........................
I just watched the video and have a question for all you older parents out there.
What in the hell is wrong with these young parents these days??
No really~ what is wrong with them?
My stepmom knew what to do! 4 words “GO. OUTSIDE. AND. PLAY.”
She said that a lot mostly when we were getting on her nerves and acting like “wild Indians”.
That lousy rotten SOB bastard, and why didn’t the mother leave with the little boy?
Big man. Bullying a little boy. I hope the jury fries him.
Folks, he was fine from the exercise.
In the article, it says the kid died of apparent blunt trauma to the chest.
It will be hard to prove murder, when the kid survived the machine videos.
He will likely go free, unless they can determine the kid had knuckle bruises on his chest, or the like.
Manslaughter might be more appropriate.
Cute kid. The father was an idiot. Even if his kid had not died, he was creating an environment where the kid would not learn to enjoy physical fitness.
There are some conditions that cause excessive intolerance, and PEM (post exertional malaise) where the body runs down very quickly, and can’t recuperate like normal healthy people can, and if pushed too far, the body goes into shut down mode, and can die.
Maybe the child was obese because he had a condition like the above. It’s not a case of “being lazy”, it’s a case of the body not operating correctly, not replacing the atp which fuels the mitochondria to keep the body functioning normally- its akin to using a near dead battery which runs out quickly, but can only recharge back to about 1/4 of full- it keeps running out and crashing- and if pushed too much, it will stop working altogether-
At any rate, even if the kid didn’t have a condition like that, the father now,has to love with the fsct that he psuehd the kid way too far.
What a beautiful child. There truly are monsters out there parading as parents. That child didn’t appear to have an ounce of fat on him. The fat is in the brain of the thing that calls itself a dad. I would hope the mother has left!!!!
“He has since turned down a 30-year plea deal “
GOOD! He should get a life sentence! NO PLEA DEAL!
Did no one see this?
I would have called the cops immediately if I witnessed this.
Is this much different than a mother making her little boy wear a dress, take puberty blockers and then wonder why the malformed male with fake boobs and a dress commits suicide?
EC
This guy is a piece of work. You can tell by the way he picks the boy up, that he has issues. He grabbed him like a sack of potatoes.
Why would the post label this as a graphic video. It is horrible, despicable treatment, but graphic? We have become such a weak society.
I would gladly plug this POS. What a coward. Complete failure.
It took 3 years to bring this evil bastard to trial. Great job America.
What a POS who needs to take a dirt nap.
I have one question: did no one at the Club intervene to stop the treadmill?
I took my son out, when he was young, to teach him a lesson about easting and calories....
I took him to the HS track and made him run 4 laps, ( I ran with him) and then showed him exactly how many calories he burned by doing that.. We weren’t sprinting but a steady jog. When we were done I asked him how many calories he thought he burned doing that... then showed him what he actually burned... Needless to say his guess vs reality, and of course he’s sweating and just exerted himself for the last 10-15 minutes and thinks he burned some insane amount of calories... and the reality was far far far below that.
I didn’t do it to abuse him, and I didn’t drive him, but I didn’t let him quit either.
The lesson I attempted to teach him was for him to understand exactly how many calories he actually used vs what he thought he would use, and to be more aware of how much he was eating and needed.
This guy, he’s just an ass.. and abusing this kid.
