A sad story...............................what would you have done?????????????

Smiles if more people would do this or something like this there would be less child abuse and children being killed by parents. There is a time and a place to correct a child and beating is not away to correct. a swat here and there I believe is fine. But people need to step back and listen. My grandson the other night went outside after his mom got home and it was dark and we didn't know he went out but came running back in crying. He fell in the dark and oh boy the story he had about the cupcake monster. Lets put it to you this way. If I can get the picture of the cupcake monster drawn I think I will try to turn it into a book called Jake and the Cupcake Monster in the Dark. He was so descriptive when he was talking about the cupcake monster I could see it in my minds eye. Kids do things for a reason they may do it because is the way they express love and not knowing any better than not to scratch a car. you get my plus in this discussion. You have not lost touch with you imagination like so many adults do when we get older. I haven't and is what keeps me young.

yeah well anyone would be pissed but its about controlling your anger at the right time. i'm glad that you feel that way........the right way.

what did you mean that he did the right thing in the beginning or in the end?????????????????????

Og course..I meant the dad did right by ending his life. I did not fall off the turnip truck yesterday. He was NOT washing the car wiht a wrench. he was actuvely beating this child and the child is maimed. This father had ..juts a rotten temper. The child is better wiht him gone and not beating him more.

Is this what they mean by the post has been deleted?
I have never seen one deleted before.

It cannot be a true story Faith.
Who washes their car with a wrench in their hand.
And who in their right mind would not realise they had said wrench in their hand.

hey i'm not BBC news or anything.
i juz pass what i hear

probably the best thing to do.
you did a mistake once so dont commit a graver one again!!!!!!!!!11

You must get the best response for this one
I would have been proud to have written this reply myself
Come on mr original poster
Please give this guy the best response

and yet we respond to the dumb discussions instead of ignoring...shame on us.

This not just for you but for all the people who dont go with this discussion.
I dont go surfing the net tryin to find stories that i could make money out of.
some say its not real.....
who cares if its real even i dont know i juz came to hear this story and thought it conveyed some good messages and so i wanted to share it with you people.
if you want real stories y dont you read the newspaper or sumthin.
If you really didnt like this discussion the best thing would hav bin to not respond.

No, the best thing would have been for someone not to post this as thoughg it was true. As I said before: why was he washing a car with a wrench in his hand? You now have other people thinking this is a true story; you could at least say something about "this isn't true, but it has a good moral". I never said you went searching the web for anything at all. I just said it's not a true story and someone needs to practice on their storytelling skills. Sorry if you're offended by truth.

People's reactions would have been a lot different if you had of been up front about the subject of your post. People wouldn't have been nearly as sympathetic if they knew it didn't happen. I just don't like playing on peoples emotions.

Thank you bonbon; I didn't even bother to check due to the fact it was so obviously untrue...
