My dad used to beat my ass in the middle of the street with a waffle ball bat in front of all my friends.

I don't see the big deal.

Yep, looks about like what a switch would do. By reading some comments on the internet you would have thought the kid lost an arm or leg!

Hahahaha!!!. I've gotten the wiffle bat, belt, paddle, and hand. Switch was before my time though.

There's a difference between spanking and abuse. If you have seen the pictures, then you know this is a case of abuse. AP went to far.

Ok, you are right, he should just get life in prison. That should do it!

So what are we looking at? Lifetime ban? Vikings will have to cut him immediately.

Probably depond on how big of an uproar there is and if there is a video or not.

Our modern society is soft.

You are correct. That is the reason kids kill other kids and people these days. Never heard of that sh!t when I was growing up.....and all the kids I grew up with got their asses torn up from time to time.

For the record, I don't think he should even get arrested. I do think he went to far. The unfortunate thing here is that government is now involved and he may not get to see his kids for a while without some government turd being present watching his every move like he's some pedo.

If you have to resort to beating your child with a stick you are a poor excuse for a parent. Mr. Peterson needs a time out.

"f**k off"..... said millions of people who's parents applied well timed & appropriate physical consequences to stupid deserving behavior of their children. Maybe you need another "participation trophy". Think you could use a broader brush to insult others? What a di*k.

The man flat out, point blank insulted not only my parents, but millions of others. Let's just say it's fortunate this is a message board & not someplace in person.

Man, I got hit with belts from my Mom and swtiches from my Grandmother. You can sit there and say " oh I never hit my child" and to those I say good for you. However, lets not act like spanking a child for acting out is the same as hitting your wife in the face.

Sometimes I spank my wife for acting out.....she kinda likes it though !!!!

I have no problem with spanking, but a switch? Seriously?

Yep. I recall my great aunt threatening us with that when we were little.

Beating a 4 year old with a stick? The guy drew blood? WTF? A four year old?
