“Come here”! She then walks over to the little boy and strikes the little boy three times hard, across the head. She is no average size person. One of her strikes would definitely hurt someone. The little boy began to cry. She then said to him. “Don’t do that again you little f_ _ k” “ Come here you little piece of sh_t”. She tells him to sit down on the floor and to shut the f_ _ k up!” “Don’t do that again or else it will be the end of you”

my question then because there seems to be such a wide range of what people generalize as abuse, was for the people that have posted in these forums to state there definitions for abuse, and why, generalization like best interest of the child, abuse, happy warm loving family life, are all different for each of us.

Next thing the little boy had stopped at the door to look outside. He just stood there gazing at the cars go by, not really moving at all. Next thing I hear the mother yell out at the little boy “ Get away from there!” “Come here”! She then walks over to the little boy and strikes the little boy three times hard, across the head. She is no average size person. One of her strikes would definitely hurt someone. The little boy began to cry. She then said to him. “Don’t do that again you little f_ _ k” “ Come here you little piece of sh_t”. She tells him to sit down on the floor and to shut the f_ _ k up!” “Don’t do that again or else it will be the end of you” “Promise!”

She proceeds to deal with the teller. At this point I am standing there in disgust and my blood is just boiling to the point that I have to go over and confront the mother. She tells the teller how sick and tired she is of the child. She then turns around and mumbles to the child to go get his teddy bear and to go sit in the chair and to stay put. She then mumbles to him “Some days I feel like gathering all your stuff and getting rid of you”. “Put you on the side of the road” “For f_ _ks sake”

what concerns me more are the REMOVAL of main stays. for example: the removal of the lord's prayer from schools. to school boards i would say: introduce prayers from the cultures of your students (would this take longer each morning - yes, but so what!) don't remove the prayer i grew up saying because another person grew up saying something else. simply allow that prayer to be observed.

one of the things that attracted me about him was what I thought was his creativity/individuality/inventive manner, it became apparent after a few months that these traits were manipulations and when challenged about his thoughts,plan,ideals he became enraged and was unable to cope with someone trying to change his script as he saw it.

They are both well mannered and love to be around people. Wouldn't harm a fly, one is afraid of cats, the scary looking one lol.. The mix is afraid of men and lays down and does some little growl.

You know what; roughly 2 - 4 kids are killed a year by one of the four pit bull breeds in North America. The same number are killed by other Large breeds. HOWEVER, more kids (200 +) land up in the hospital with threatening wounds inflicted by LABRADOR RETRIEVERS and GOLDEN RETRIEVERS and GERMAN SHEPHERDS. Statistically; The labrador retriever is much more dangerous by number value than the pitbull breeds combined.

So, you get your dog put down for showing agression; SO when your child beats the shit out of another kid, you are going to put him/her down as well? I sure the hell hope so because if not, you are very ignorant. A dog is a living being and they ONLY attack for reason. They are scared; They are protecting themself; They feel threatened;l Someone hurt them.

I mean 40 yrs ago we did not have as many deaths as we do now. Advancements in medicine has created sickness as well as cured some. We were healthier 40 yrs ago then we are now.
