Updated, 8:47 pm ET:
A flight attendant is being praised for taking a baby from its mother following “an incident” aboard a Southwest airline plane yesterday.
What kind of mother slaps a 1-year-old child across the face for crying?
CNN has the harrowing details:
A flight attendant on a Southwest Airlines flight from Dallas, Texas, to Albuquerque told police she saw the woman “strike the child with an open hand on the face in an attempt to get the child to stop crying,” a police report states. The flight attendant also said she saw the mother slapping the child on her legs.
KRQE reports the incident involved a 1-year-old.
The woman appeared “agitated,” the flight attendant said, and the husband was yelling at his wife to shut up due to her screaming at the child, the report states.
The baby girl had a black eye, which the parents said was from a dog bite from an uncle’s Great Dane, the report said.
According to the police report, the woman told officers she only slapped her child after she was kicked. And she said she put her finger on the child’s mouth in an attempt to get her to be quiet.
Asked if she thought it was okay to hit a 13-month-old baby, the woman nodded to police and said, “She’s my daughter,” according to the police report.
The flight from Dallas, Texas, to Albuquerque arrived around 4:30 p.m. local time on Monday.
Both parents were questioned by police and then released on their own recognizance after medical personnel examined the child for injuries. The family then boarded another flight.
Source: CNN
“The mom may have yelled and may have slapped the baby,” Sunport Police Chief Marshall Katz told KRQE.

If it actually happened wouldn’t this be concretely stated??
WTH? Slapping a 13 month old is totally uncalled for and both parents should be in jail. The baby already had a black eye from a dog bite? Yeah okay!!! Kudos to the flight attendant (in this case)!!!!
Did she or didn’t she slap the baby? If she did, good for the FA for removing the child from the situation.

I cosign 1000%!
That flight attendant is bold. Cause if the mother can slap her own blood she sure as hail won’t having a problem spazing out on someone who interferes.
but they didn’t find the baby to be harmed so why is this news again….
sounds like some nosy person over exaggerated something that was really nothing.
SOMEBODY SHOULD HAVE SLAPPED HER AZZ ACROSS THE FACE!
PEOPLE LIKE THAT ARE BULLIES AND NEED A MUD HOLE STOMPED IN THIER AZZ- REAL TALK

@KrayZKat
Yes she slapped her.
According to the police report, the woman told officers she only slapped her child after she was kicked. And she said she put her finger on the child’s mouth in an attempt to get her to be quiet. Asked if she thought it was okay to hit a 13-month-old baby, the woman nodded to police and said, “She’s my daughter,” according to the police report.
Yeah slapping a one year old across the face but being awnry or upset-the woman needs parenting classes or should give her child up for adoption to a better home she doing this type of ish in public I fear to know what’s done in the privacy of her own home

So you think it’s okay to slap a 1-year-old across the face? That’s called abuse, not discipline.
@choco… girl you ain’t neva lied! my son is 22 years old and i can count on one hand how many times i had to spank him! please just one LOOK and that lil nicca would be in check. to this day he STILL scared of my looks! i feel real sorry for these parents 2day…

Why didn’t the FA take the baby to another FA and go back and smack the mess out of the mother?

Where did you see that?
This story is all kinds of inconsistent. I agree ISC, I wish a nicca would take my baby up out my hands…there would be consequences and reprocussions. I dont agree with the abuse, however nowhere in the report does it say the baby was slapped acrossed the face.

Lord have mercy. People are going stone crazy taking their frustrations out on poor, innocent children. >:(
Thanks for clearing that up for me.
the woman nodded to police and said, “She’s my daughter,” according to the police report.
and when that stupid bytch said that the cops should have hog tied her crazy azz!
@Anna
You know damn well that FA wanted to eff that mother up she did the sensible thing
Co-sign @ Miss Gauzz I guess it depends on what state you are in
@Choco… My daughter is 23 and bigger than me and she will be laughing telling her friends MOMZ is strong I ain’t messing with her
@Sandra from your CNN link.
The baby girl had a black eye, which the parents said was from a dog bite from an uncle’s Great Dane, the report said.

A 1 yr. old does not have reasoning skills. This didn’t warrant a smack/slap in the face unless it was a foul mouth tween/teen. Yes parents usually take the kid away from the situation and regroup them in the bathroom. She was on a Airplane and the baby is only 1.
Well just a few days ago a stupid woman who got into an argument with her mom pulled the same type of ish the white woman did drowing her kids in a river with them strapped into the car seat – I mean WTF kill your damself
@Sandra
The entire report from CNN says that stuff about the dog bite
If this kid was older…I wouldn’t say anything…
But a one year old….wow.
@Anna
but the mom is so stupid the infant/toddler could’ve had an earache you know how those planes are – I mean anything could’ve been wrong and she thinks slapping is the resolution somebody gonna whoop her azz
The mother HERSELF told police she slapped her 13 month old daughter.
dawg bite my azz!!!
that don’t even sound right! 1st of all a great dane would demolish a little kid that size! lawd i just can’t!!! 
@Starr
Older my azz I can’t remember the times I got slapped in my face my mom used to spank us it was a rare occassion for us to get hit in the face
I think the cops are just saying she may or may not as cop talk lol But the report on this link says that passenger heard the commotion.
:smh: @ the i didn’t hit you that hard quote …i mean wow
And it also have the bit on the black eye from the dog
On further thought this sick bish prolly want her child taken from her…

How are you going to get into a fight w/your mama and smother your 1 1/2 and 2 yr old and let the car drive in the water. This women was 29 and Post baby blues are not a joke, but ppl need to quit taking their anger out on the innocent.
After reading the story, the husband tried to calm his wife down. She sounds like she’s on the edge and needs some “mommy” time. Sheesh!
@MissGauzz
now that I look back at it
But ask both of my kids how many times they have been spanked and they can barely count on one hand I think that’s where communicating and setting boundaries helped me I don’t like hitting my kids and I feel worse afterwards so if I pound on that table – they be gone like shyt up them stairs in their rooms
@Anna
That sick troll wanted to hurt her mother-I hope she gets it in jail I hope them ladies drown her azz
I’m all for spankings, I got them as a child not a lot but I did get them but slapping a 13 month old is totally uncalled for!!
Choco says:
@Anna
but the mom is so stupid the infant/toddler could’ve had an earache you know how those planes are – I mean anything could’ve been wrong and she thinks slapping is the resolution somebody gonna whoop her azz
~~~~~~~~
Ppl are not prepared while traveling w/kids. She had money for a plane ticket and yes, the kid could have had a earache and they do hurt, I’m 43 and had one last Monday and didn’t get to work until noon. Anyone who travels by plane or car knows that the ears are going to hurt, pop at some point into the trip. The baby could have been teething, it could have been anything, someone should have smacked her.
no charges were pressed after speaking with numerous people so….
@Anna
Exactly my 4 year old son was tearing up when we traveled via plane I had to put cotton in his ears and he finally fell asleep – that was breaking my heart so I can’t fathom not checking to make a one year old is okay..

When I read this story I was kind of shocked that it was a black mother. Not saying that black mothers don’t do this but most have a history w/CSB before it gets this far, or it’s usually the boyfriend who kills the kid(s)while moms at work.
@Anna
I’m sad to say I wasn’t shocked especially after hearing about that mother that cut all her children’s throats and then set the house on fire DISTURBING

~~~~~~~~
I don’t get it, who wants a miserable child while traveling, it was that mothers job to be a little more prepared for whatever. It’s our job as travelers to not make the experience miserable for everyone on board. If the mom needs mommy time, was daddy on the plane w/her to help with the 1 yr old or was she traveling alone w/her child?
I think a slap to the face is the meanest sort of punishment. The only time I hear that happening is if the parent has been pushed too far or they never disiplined their kids in the first place then BAM they loose control. The poor baby’s ears where prolly popping being up in the air in all, there are other ways to calm a baby. Mom was extra bold for slapping the baby in public too…
Speaking of crazy folks
Autie are u going to do a story on that football player that divorced his wife and married his stalker whom he had an affair with?
@Anna
A real mother/parent would factor those things in when traveling with their child becuz they care I mean they one year old supposedly has a black eye from a Great Dane that woman doesn’t seem to watch over her child at all
@Sandra
No, I don’t think its cool to slap a 13 month old across the face and in the original post it didn’t state that the mother admitted to ever touching the girl. I see that now reading the comments. But how serious could it have been if the cops didn’t arrest her or remove the child from her custody.
I don’t know what happened but I do know that people (mainly white no offense to anyone) like to make something out of nothing. Now if she put her finger to the childs mouth and the flight attendant said that was a slap then she should learn to mind her business.
Same way people praised that drunken flight attendant just to find out he was the trouble maker all along. I didn’t jump to conclusion without knowing the full story.
Sandra, why do you state that it was slapped in the face? The news said that it “may have” been slapped once on the leg. It doesn’t even sound like its SURELY known what the mother did. Whatever happened, it was so UNsevere that after witness statements and a examination of the child, it was returned to the parents. Sounds like a lot of this might have been much ado about nothing.
@Al
That’s it then Im about to due some hoeshyt or heroine shyt a reality show for real tho SMDH!

I forgot about that, sad. I know it’s easy to say if you can’t take care of them don’t have them, but I will say if you don’t want them, give them away. Black women have always been the back bone of their family and would take in others kids in a heart beat.

I WAS RIDING DOWN THE STREET AND NOTICED A BLACK CHICK WITH HER SON, WALKING DOWN THE STREET- I GUESS HER LIL MAN WAS WALKING TOO SLOW- SHE TURNED AROUND AND A KINDA BUCKED AT HIM.. THE LITTLE BOY’S REACTION ALMOST GOT HER AZZ BEAT.. I HATE THAT CHIT…ITS HARD TO WATCH.. SHE SAW ME STARING AT HER- LOL.. SHE JUST KEPT WALKING – BUT THAT IMAGE WILL FOREVER SKETCHED IN MY BRAIN.. HORRIFYING
@Cheeks
Ain’t do damn story there with the football players that mofo did all that to appease his wife he kept the affair going all along but I wonder if new wifey understands that he prolly still has a mistress
@Val
See shyt like that gets to my heart and I’ve have a mouth and not afraid to back it up regardless of consequences – stupid bishes!
Hey Sandra did you here the story of the woman suffocated her sons before submerging bodies in car?
some parents should come with
signs
childmolester
childabuser
childkiller im just saying

~~~~~~~~~
I first read slapped, you’re right it didn’t say where,(not the site I read it on), the face does make it seem much more drastic.
maybe i’m alone, but what does slapped mean? couldnt popped in the mouth be viewed the same way?
because i see nothing wrong with popping a 1 yr old in the mouth.
i dont advocate abuse and u can dis-agree with me if u want, but all 1 yr olds arent innocent. and until you have been kicked by, screamed at or bitten by a 1 yr old, you have no idea what u talking about.
because if u paying 400-500 on a plane ticket and u have to ride 6 hours with a screaming baby, you’d be ready to pop someone too.
lol for real.

What happened??? Now I see how my parents felt when time were changing as we got older but I don’t think anything compares to what’s going on today
Ok. I just went and read the entire story on CNN. There is more info today than yesterday when I first heard about it. In light of all that the witnesses say they witnessed–slaps, yelling, “shut up”, a “black eye due to a dog bite” (I don’t get that one)–I now understand and agree with the flight attendant’s actions. These parents sound suspect.
The mother told police she slapped the baby. The FA said, “she saw the woman, open hand slap the baby on the face” and other passengers said they saw her hitting the baby on the leg.

No shade whatsoever but I don’t think you know what your talking about every mother on here has dealt with the difficult twos so with that being said still didn’t pop them in their mouth but I would sting that lil leg if I had to

i have a one year old and she does not know anybetter she is one the only way she can express her stress pain or if anything is bothering her is by crying so saying that basicly it was the childs fault is dumb but you are right we tottaly disagree!!!!! the mother is the dam adult not the child
@ Choco…well I hope they are happy…Thats just so trife that he did his wife like that. I was thinking in my head he must have kept it going for him to turn around and marry her…sad…
I never understand how a mother could kill their kids and be selfish enough to go on living. If u are crazy enough to drown your kids u better be strapped to the front seat as well…justsayin…the general population is gonna kill that lady in prison

@Cheeks
IDK hun I don’t think they are happy and I think he’s the root cause of alot of their misery…
And see this what I’m thinking any woman who does not take her life when taking her childrens life either wants to be punished becuz of their shame or they are TRULY an empty vessel a lost SOUL
yall can say what yall want. lol.
but people do one thing in public and do another when they are at home.
how can u measure the force of a slap, pop, tap or punch thru an article? lol. it must have not have been that serious if she still has her baby? and no charges filed?
ummm ok.
yall on here stay saying lets hear the who story when it comes to these hoodrat homewreckers, giving them the benefit of the doubt, blessing them, praising them an sending them well wishes.
but when it comes to a mother disciplining her child. she automatically wrong?
lmao. ummm yeah ok.

Please quit while you think your ahead you are not helping make this case-your whole entire point is why you shouldn’t be slapping, popping, tapping or punching becuz you don’t know your force and let’s not forget this infant/toddler is a 1 year old again no shade but you are contradicting yourself
a pop in the azz a pull of the ear or a slap in the hand is enough to dicipline a child anything else is too dam much why should we as mothers treat our kids this way?? dicipline is one thing abuse is another no child should be slap in the dam face
Why the hell are you hitting a 1yr old? A 1yr old is a baby. Babies cry! Hitting a baby will only cause more crying…wtf. If a 1yr old isnt innocent who is? When a 1yr old bites you it isnt because they like causing you pain, its because it feels good on their teething gums. They dont/cant understand that it hurts. WTH
a pop in the azz a pull of the ear or a slap in the hand is enough to dicipline a child anything else is too dam much why should we as mothers treat our kids this way??

And most times that’s all it takes I’m not saying it’s easy but I’m not saying it’s as hard
@choco you are talking to a person that provably does not have any children and if they do have very diferent way of dicipline its just ignorant to basicly say its the childs fault this chit happen baby should of be quiet the child was a BABY how else is the BABY suppose to express pain or stress??? if a grown azz adult gets tired of sitting in aplane what makes u think that a one year old wont get frustarated????
@Laker
I realized that I hope that person isn’t a parent becuz I feel already for that child-
@ lakercrazy
u obviously take this blog WAY to seriously. lmao. omg. LMAO wtf?!?!??! lmao.
on that note … lmao …
and just for sh*ts and giggles. i’m MARRIED with 3 boys and i rarely hit my kids. i dont like to, unless it warrants it.
my only point is this ..
who the f.ck are yall to say she’s wrong? lmao.
…
the answer? no one.
@Ajonesy
Who are we to say she is wrong girl are you serious who are you to say she’s right – the same questions you pose to us ask yourself
Also it’s not the blog that is serious it’s topic matter-
@ajonesy lmo lmo what??? fo real chick wow the topic is not something to laugh about so how are we suppose to take this topic light girl please good day I SAID GOOD DAY
@choco im out my luv u have a good and blessd day peace ***in my best chris brown voice*** chunking up the deuces
choco, i’m not saying she’s right. i wasnt there. i’m saying i can understand and empathize.
you ladies can empathize with homewreckers, but not a frustrated mother? lol
and just because she slapped, popped or tapped the baby doesnt make her a child abuser. and doesnt mean she’s gonna drown her kids in a bathtub either.
tis all.
@ lakercrazy
please re-read.
i’m laughing at YOU! lmao.
because i didnt realize it (it = this conversation) was that serious.

According to the police report, the woman told officers she only slapped her child after she was kicked. And she said she put her finger on the child’s mouth in an attempt to get her to be quiet. Asked if she thought it was okay to hit a 13-month-old baby, the woman nodded to police and said, “She’s my daughter,” according to the police report.
———————————————————————-
OOOOOOOOOOOOOoooh so she was supposed to let the 13 month old daughter think it was okay to kick adults….hmmmmm….wonder what the child would do at age 13 without discipline.

I personally don’t know ONE person who has slapped their 13 MONTH old BABY on their face nor do I know any that have to do much more than give a look to those same now older children and I come from a big aZZ family!! I most definitely have read cases of kids that came from homes of a lack of discipline and too much of discipline; where both types of parenting had horrible results. I guess you could be damned if you do and damned if you don’t!
Ajonesy, you are not by yourself
Im not gonna slap my child across the face, but you better believe if she was acting out on that plane i would have taken her in the bathroom and gotten her together. Just like people can ignore those bad azz 1 year old YT churrin that aggrevate the hell out of and tourture everyone in their presence with their lack of home training…YT people should give me the same respect and let me dicipline my kid in peace…mind ya fukking bizness!!! Maybe if they diciplined their children more they won’t grow up to shoot everybody in school for IGNORING their azzez.

The brain of a 13-month-old child is not cognitively developed enough for her to understand why she is being slapped! You never slap a 1-year-old child in the face for any reason. That is child abuse.
If I see someone abusing a child, I will NEVER mind my own business, and I don’t give a rat’s azz if the parent is angry or not. It IS our business when an innocent child is in danger. I don’t care if it’s a mother, father, or whomever. You can’t even treat a dog like that and get away with it.
When I was a teenager, a neighbor slapped her crawling baby so hard on the back because the baby was pulling plastic dishes out the dishwasher. She hit her so hard, it left a hand print on the baby’s back. >:(
Finally a few voices of reason.
Abuse is never ok, but assuming people are abusers because they discipline their kids different than you isn’t either.

YOU don’t know if the lady SLAPPED HER CHILD IN THE FIRST PLACE SANDRA…she said she put her hand on her mouth to get her to be quiet! And if the child’s face wasn’t RED or bruised after being slapped in the face (the most sensitive area to abuse on your body) then OBVIOUSLY the slap didn’t DO ANY DAMAGE and it probably didnt even hurt…the sound of that shyt, probably errked people more than anything…AT LEAST THE NOSEY MF’s who TEND TO OTHER PEOPLE’s BUSINESS it did.

Abuse is never ok, but assuming people are abusers because they discipline their kids different than you isn’t either.

#StandingOvation
Beating a child is a power struggle. You have control and power over a helpless child. No wonder the spirits of our children have been broken. No wonder so many men grow up hating women because they grew up being yelled at, bullied by, and maligned by their mothers. Women who “beat their children’s asses” (read ABUSE) are no different that the male who decides to beat his woman’s ass. It’s a power struggle. Discipline is essential to raising children. Beating and crushing their spirit is not, and those who have been entrusted to molding the lives of children and fail to do so will have to answer to the Almighty God. Children are a blessing, but their parents sometimes aren’t.
Girl THE ALMIGHTY GOD I KNOW CLEARLY STATES IN HIS BIBLE NOT TO “SPARE THE ROD”…….??? AND I AIN ABOUT TO SPOIL NO CHILD if GOD said NOT TO!

People can dicipline their kidz….thats just the bottom line. Abuse…NO, DICIPLINE…yes
You never slap a 1-year-old child in the face for any reason. That is child abuse.
Sandra….nobody is agreeing with this. I think we are all clear that hand slapping a 13 month old in the face is DEAD AZZ WRONG.
We get this!.
Nobody is gonna tell me how to discipline my child POINT BLANK and to ATTEMPT to have the audacity to take him/her up out my arms is a NO NO… call whoever you want but you physically intervening is only going to get your feelings hurt and your gonna wish you gave me 50 ft.
Krysi J – Yes, abuse and discipline are two different things. Slapping a child (whether it happened on during this incident or elsewhere) is never okay. That is ABUSE.
Yes, I did bring God into this because I believe (the operative word is “I”) we have to answer to God for our actions, especially as it relates to children. Since you brought up the “sparing the rod” scripture, let me mentioned this:
“Fathers, provoke not your children [to anger], lest they be discouraged. ” (Colossians 3:21)

ajonesy says:
maybe i’m alone, but what does slapped mean? couldnt popped in the mouth be viewed the same way?
because i see nothing wrong with popping a 1 yr old in the mouth.
i dont advocate abuse and u can dis-agree with me if u want, but all 1 yr olds arent innocent. and until you have been kicked by, screamed at or bitten by a 1 yr old, you have no idea what u talking about.
because if u paying 400-500 on a plane ticket and u have to ride 6 hours with a screaming baby, you’d be ready to pop someone too.
lol for real.

HEY SIS.. DO YOU HAVE KIDS??? CUZ I HAVE A 1 YR OLD AND I JUST CANT SEE WHY ON EARTH WOULD I SLAP, POP MY CHILD IN THE MOUTH… WHY??
aqtpie says:
We comment on other people’s business almost daily on here and a lot of times by going off of pictures and other people’s stories!!! The FA should’ve just punched the stupid bish in the face!!
~~~~~~~~
We sure do! People think because it’s their kid they can treat their children any way they choose. You see parents everyday in the store, killing their children’s spirit in the name of discipline. They yell, scream, curse, and hit and then they wonder why their kids hate their guts when they get older or why their kids act out. They can’t figure out any other way to get the message across, so they use violence.
So, why is this family not suing the hell out of Southwest, Love Field, Albuquerque International Sunport’s police, the cities of Dallas and Alburquerque, the states of Texas and New Mexico, and for defamation, kidnapping, emotional distress, pain and suffering?!?!?!?!?!
hey val,
yes married with 3 boys. i dont condone slapping as child in the face. or any kind of abuse.
would i pop a 1 yr old on the mouth? i might depending on the circumstances.
again. no one deserves and open-handed slap on the face. not even an adult. but i just felt like if the girl slapped the baby that hard, she would have been in jail.
people and a few commenters, on this blog read more into article than was there.
thats all.
thanks for asking, instead of assuming, i’m some kind of psycho deranged, abusive lunatic who likes slapping babies just because we might have differing opnions. lol
Sandra Rose says:
According to the police report, the woman told officers she only slapped her child after she was kicked…

Krysi J says:
OOOOOOOOOOOOOoooh so she was supposed to let the 13 month old daughter think it was okay to kick adults….hmmmmm…
_________________________
The brain of a 13-month-old child is not cognitively developed enough for her to understand why she is being slapped! You never slap a 1-year-old child in the face for any reason. That is child abuse.

i agree. but i also feel like people use the term “abuse” too loosely.
imo.
@KrayZKat says
right! or grow up looking for love in all the wrong places! Kids are people too- treat them how you would want to be treated is what i say.. i dont want anyone slapping, punching, popping me in the mouth just becuase Im crying.. try feeding, nurturing or communicating with the child..Im speaking from experience. I also have a 15 yr old daughter who has had a handful of spankings growing up, I can count on 1 hand how many times i had to get physical with her…she’s an honor roll student right now… nuff said
it’s not necessary and if you’re mad- try punching an adult that can punch you back..just sayin
lol @ajonesy – I understand where youre coming from. And I do know that we’re prolly taking it too far- but that picture of that baby crying.. and that headline… sent me over the edge- LMAOOOO

@Val – Sadly, a lot of parents aren’t like you. You’re so right. Kids are people to and should be treated as such. What gives a parent the right to treat them anyway they want because they are children. Lord knows my mom whipped us, but she never slapped us and she wasn’t a yeller. Our house was peaceful. These same people wouldn’t think about lying a hand on another adult.
Congrats on your daughters honor roll status!

this story in itself makes no sense at all- how did the flight attendant get the child so fast.. no CPS process?? just take the child home and chit??!!
lol. @ val.
yes SR does have a way of getting people worked up over nothing lol.
The flight attendant saw the heated couple yelling at each other and the baby, and ASKED not SNATCHED “if she could help them out with the screaming baby” and the exact words from the article was “the stupid a$$ mama willingly handed over the child, and the flight attendant was able to calm the baby down by rocking it in her arms. She didn’t just come over there and snatch the woman’s child!
Congrats Val!!
@ KrayZKat – Thanks Doll
@ val, but i do agree with u.
“treat them how you would want to be treated is what i say”
i rarely spank my kids, thats my husbands job, however i dont like having to spank or yell at them at all.
i like having fun and spanking really changes the flow and atmosphere around the house. so in my house u really had to have your fair share of warnings before we go there. lol.
@Val – you’re welcome, hun!
@ aqtpie Thanks Doll
@ ajonesy.. I know, right!!!!! LMAO

LOL- EXACTLY.. SOUNDS LIKE YOUR KIDS ARE PRETTY LUCKY TO HAVE YOU
team good mommies that love their children
@ val, and the same to you and yours!
Different strokes for different folks. Not all children are the same and not all of them need to be disciplined but hell some of these demon ass kids need to be.
I know a couple who has a child around this age and they do not believe in spankings at all… that don’t mean that child don’t. He will slap the mother, father, grand parent, kids in day care… Now where did he learn that from because they don’t beat him….
But they damn sure need to….
I do not believe in allowing children to tell their parents what they will or won’t do. I believe in discipline but not abuse. Slapping a 1 year old is abuse, the baby doesn’t have that level of comprehension. Every child is different and for some a stern voice or a look will work, for others it won’t. Everybody has a different personality and it is up to the parent to use their judgement and decide which course of action is the best for dealing with a particular situation.
@ iscream
funny. but exactly what i’m talking about. lol. some kids? they need it. its definitely a thin line an on a touchy subject.
but i would rather take my chances with popping my kid than having them slap me in the face lmao.
no ma’am.
I can’t believe the baby had a black eye from a “dog bite” and the police accepted that lame excuse and sent them on their way. Wow. :/
@ SR
yeah that did sound odd.

All AA moms should be like you.
Hello All. I’m from the ole school and my Momma, God rest her soul, didn’t spank us, SHE BEAT US, not often but usually with an electric cord, you know the one you use to plug up coffee. My mom was mean but I loved her to death and she loved her children all the same, never making a difference. I wouldn’t be where I am today if it were not for her. I think beating children this severly, with a cord, stems from slavery, where slaves were literally whipped into submission. (A lot of things in our culture today can be traced back to slavery, like the get-over mentality.) I was blessed because my only child never gave me any trouble so the few times I had to discipline him, I usually grabbed a ruler and hit him on the leg or butt but never in public, like my mother. One last thing. Have you ever been on a plane, train, bus, etc and a baby cried incessantly for hours on end? Whoa!

yessss lord. w/my daddy’s big black belt that hung on a nail behind their bedroom door and also with this avon brush that had a victorian lady on the front. it sat on the shelf in the front room. whichever one was closer was the one we got. i correlate the lack of *ss whippings these days with the attitudes of these kids.

Yes! I just came back from the Virgin Islands last week and there were TWO children that screaming the whole time. I know that they are babies and don’t understand, but seems like the parent should have been better prepared to keep their child entertained on a 3 1/2 hour trip. It was very annoying to myself and I would assume the other passengers within earshot.
