February 15, 201214 yr First thought is why are you bringing it into this conversation? There has been absolutely no indication that he's ever laid a hand on his daughter and it's not fair to go there. I didn't say he did. It seemed a lot of the thread was discussing parenting styles more broadly and I was curious what people thought of this video.
February 15, 201214 yr Saw where dad was visited by Child Services and the police.....Probably because they weren't busy.

Ok, just wanted to make sure you weren't relating the two actions. It may have been elsewhere but I was thinking the video was posted here last year and the concensus was that he was over the top.

February 16, 201214 yr Thoughts on this video? That video is absolutely sick. That coward of a father is a piece of crap & the mother isn't much better either. They're "disciplining" their daughter for their own individual satisfaction which is repulsive.

They're "disciplining" their daughter for their own individual satisfaction which is repulsive. Here's a video of the Judge's Daughter on the Today Show. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WAp5MOd33w The 16 year old girl has cerebral palsy.
February 16, 201214 yr According to a facebook page (Don't Re-Elect Judge William Adams), Judge Adams was suspended, without pay, for 6 months in Nov '11.
February 16, 201214 yr I just did some googling. Looks like it's from 2004 and she was downloading music onto the computer. It nearly made me sick watching that. I can see spanking your children 1 or 2 times or threatening them with a belt. I get spanked once or twice but I deserved it. He obviously went WAY WAY over the line. To make matters worse, the girl being beaten in the video had cerebral palsy.

February 17, 201214 yr Hated it. I always hate when overreaction is the "punishment". All he likely accomplished was getting YouTube hits for himself, and driving his daughter further away. 45- 2 Kids, 25 and 24. You can't say it was overreaction. You don't know how many times he's tried other methods. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say he knows his daughter better than we do. Some kids don't respond well to "nicer" methods. My daughter, for instance, learned easily with simple methods. My son, on the other hand, was very hard headed. 50 - 2 kids raised, now ages 27 and 24.
February 17, 201214 yr Thoughts on this video? Over the top. No doubt. The guy that shot the laptop, not so much.
February 17, 201214 yr Saw where dad was visited by Child Services and the police.....For crying out loud.
