A Spartanburg, South Carolina, mom was arrested after she allegedly hit her 6-year-old son who gave his grandmother a Mother’s Day card instead of her.

Shontrell Yurmeish Murphy, 30, hit the child “really hard a few times” in the back, front, and side of his head on Thursday, the victim’s sister said in an arrest warrant obtained by WSPA. Responding police were purportedly met by the grandmother and two children—one of which was crying.

Murphy supposedly told deputies she disciplined her son because he was misbehaving at school and that she didn’t strike her son in a “hard or in a violent manner.” However, the woman’s 8-year-old daughter told cops that her mom was angry that he didn’t make a Mother’s Day card for her.

Beats on her child for not giving her a Mothers Day card and then wonders why he didn't give her a Mothers Day card?

She’s 30 and her son is only 6 years old? Surprised he’s her son instead of her grandson with a name like Shontrell.

Gee, thanks mom.

I knew before I clicked. Of course the name was a dead giveaway...

Who is going to get the Father’s Day card next month?

Finding that guy will be about as easy as finding a condom dispenser in St. Peter's Basilica.

“And I didn’t have to look.”
Me neither. Saw the word “Shontrell”,and moved on.

Kids need their fathers. The mother cannot provide discipline and structure. They are, by nature, there to provide love, tenderness, and support. It is the father that provides the "tough" love, being the bad cop sort of speaking.

I've seen plenty of single mothers who would smack their kids around. This is mostly out of frustration of trying to fill the traditional role of the father. Without the fathers being around, all the kids are going to do is grow up resenting that and seeking out false fathers, i.e. gang members or older men who may take advantage of them later.

Kids growing up without a traditional Mother and Father is the civil-rights of this time, probably after ending abortion.

Bet gramma was raising the kids. The ‘mother’ the kids knew.
A very common scenario today.
