Does it matter? If a four year old boy has an open laceration on his nut sack because his 'roided out Dad couldn't control himself, how is that not child abuse?
I was the third of eight kids in an Irish-Catholic household. I got spanked plenty with my dead grandpa's fraternity paddle that hung in the kitchen, wooden spoons and the old fashioned way, with a hand. I'm better off for it and I have no problem with parents disciplining their kids.
But to whip a four year old to the point where the boys back, ass, legs, are covered with open lacerations, and to where he has defensive wounds on his hands is not discipline, it is sadistic. AP crammed the boys mouth full of the leaves from the switch while he did it. The guy has a "whipping room" full of belts where beats his kids. That is focked up.
