grasshopper Posted November 3, 2011 A Texan judge beating up his disabled teenage daughter: A lot of us who grew up in Somalia might have horror stories about how we used to get our asses kicked when we misbehaved..some of us might look back and laugh while others might feel anger/hurt... Would you say that full out abuse is part of raising children in Somalia (and other poor countries)? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Che -Guevara Posted November 3, 2011 Abuse is part of every culture. It's the laws deterring abuse that make the difference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grasshopper Posted November 3, 2011 absolutely, laws really make a difference and make it clear that beating up children is not the same thing as discipline. to be honest, when I was young I thought getting whooped was part of growing up, but when I went back to Somalia in '05, I got sick to my stomach when I saw a mother go nuts on her kid. Education and raising awareness is also key...I wonder if there are any laws/campaigns against abuse in Somalia. or maybe they have bigger fish to fry like poverty and al-shabab.

The messed part about this is he didn't even apologize when he got caught. I am for discipline and am truly sick of all the little brats running around but this was excessive. He was more worried about his nick being found out that someone in house would be caught for pirating. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
