I blame the parents.

Ah the mockery and abuse!
Calling it out where I find it is getting me in hot water it seems.
Black culture is inherently violent.

Thanks, mamya -------- it is awful and we're running out of time before hormones kick in. He's been talked to and talked to and understood, cuddled and programmes set...…… it seems to make no difference. At the moment he seems set for academic failure, resistance (he's very bright actually) and anti-social behaviour. Well, wrong thread for this, but I am very worried about this. He lashes out viciously, I have seen adults back off from him and say kindly that he must not do this - but he does! So much for nurture. I believe that if he'd been smacked as a tiny he'd have understood about smacks hurting and so wouldn't have done it to others.

//What useful contribution to this thread would you have made if the article hadn't had pictures?//

You think we'd need a picture?

[gness]

What would happen, J if you hit him now...or smacking as it's called?

[Mamyalynne]

Jourdain, I'm sorry but I think you are wrong - though I can understand why you are searching for whatever the reason is.

I can only wish you luck with getting through.

I have to leave this thread now.x

[Spicerack]

Yep, keep avoiding the truth. It might go away.

[jourdain2]

He's too old now so we have big problems. A smack would have been in order about age 5. Perhaps a smack on the hand or nappy might have stopped him aged 18 mths. I know I let my tiny crawl towards a fire and stick her hand in at 11 mths. (she wouldn't be told 'no') to teach her to beware of fire ---I was on hand with a bowl of iced water and no harm resulted, but she never did it again and grew up fine.

[anneasquith]

Omg , you let your child burn herself, but no harm was done because you had iced water ready .?

/// I know I let my tiny crawl towards a fire and stick her hand in at 11 mths ///

What on Earth??????

[jourdain2]

Yes, what's the problem? My mum was bitten by my little sister and so she bit her back. Leaving this thread now - common sense seems to have been lost.

Innocent woman tries to defend herself from being assaulted by racist baby!

[anneasquith]

I'm pleased you have left the thread jourdain, as I will .

[Spicerack]

As will I, fgs.

[sherrardk]

I seriously wonder about where some people's heads are at - sticking a kid's hand in the fire (but had a bowl of water ready - well, that's ok then), preventing a child becoming a bully by smacking them - no wonder the kid is a bully if this sort of behaviour is deemed okay in your family (and that's just what you've posted about that you think is acceptable, wonder what else is acceptable in your world?).

[Zacs-Master]

Jesus, Jourdain. That’s pure evil. I think you should seek some psychiatric help. Seriously!

[ladybirder]

Did the baby kick the woman on purpose? I thought it was just a toddler kicking its legs about as they do. Even if it was on purpose, at that age, a firm No should suffice not hitting a little 15 month old.

[jno]

ladybirder, I don't think a 15-month-old has any idea what "purpose" is. They're just exercising their limbs.

Some people round here have some very odd ideas about children.

[emmie]

the woman was totally in the wrong, the child may have accidentally kicked her but swearing and threatening to stab the baby was appalling.

Great for highlighting that very often a poster can not be bothered to read a link.

[Cloverjo]

Yes, indeed, Talbot. I was wondering how we got onto the 'rights' and wrongs of smacking children, from this appalling woman (in the OP).
