CINCINNATI — Police say a woman has been arrested for allegedly spanking another person's 2-year-old son in a Cincinnati store.

. . .

Cincinnati police say the toddler said something that apparently annoyed Ballard inside a Salvation Army store on Tuesday. Police say she then told the boy's mother she didn't know how to take care of her son, put him over her knee, and spanked him three times.

Is this another pit bull story?

Well, unlike threads containing different subject matter. I vote not guilty.

Girlfriend to this guy?

[ReneeLynn]

No way. When my nephs were misbehaving I was the discipline. If this woman had touched one of them it would have been ‘on’.

I can understand the urge. Everyone’s felt it. But...that’s out of line.

I like you, Chet. You’re just like my chihuahua. You yap, and yap, and yap at every little thing, but every now and then your tone changes and I know I better come take a look. This is one of those times. Thanks, Chet!

depends on how severe the spanking is, I suppose. A generation or 2 ago, folks probably don’t have a problem with any adult disciplining rotten kids.

Don’t touch my child or an a$$ whipping will be in order. I discipline my kids she can discipline hers

Sorry, can’t touch someone else’s child.

Unless you’re part of the educational system, of course. Then you’re free to brainwash their minds.

If she put her hands on my child, she’d need more than obamacare

Having received plenty of corporal punishment in public school, is discipline so much better in the schools now that corporal punishment has been banned?

If it were my child, she’d be “shovel ready”. :)

Let me know when you are willing to let the NEA beat your child.
