[QUOTE="Purp, post: 2729727, member: 12852"] It's hard to say one way or the other without more details, but if what's in the story is all there is I have a hard time with this. I get that we need to protect abused kids from abusive parents, but I'm not comfortable with where we're starting to draw those lines. At what point will we totally abdicate all parenting to the state? When a woman tells you you're wrong for spanking your unruly child in the grocery store aisle I feel we're much closer to that end than the other. This reminds me of the Adrian Peterson deal. I'd never leave the kind of marks on my kid that he did to his, but a parent has to be able to discipline his kid the best way he knows how within reason. I'd admit AP got close to that line, but I know enough people who endured the same thing growing up who are great people now so I'm less certain he crossed it than most others. [/QUOTE]
