Just some thoughts I have after reading this thread. First, I was spanked with a wooden spoon on the hand as a child my mom did not beat me nor my brothers and sisters but we did get spanked. My mom was very old school and so was my grandma I remember get a switch on the back of my legs. Corporal punishment can be a cultural thing. Second , the man stated that he hit the dog and has owned up to it not being a good thing. He is still posting and seems to be trying to learn from everyone. I do not know this man personally so I have to give him the benefit of the doubt until otherwise. What strikes me as funny is that we say share with us your problems and them we rip people to shreds when they do. I am not saying that we cannot voice our views but after we do we should try to offer up solutions without being snippy. We all make mistakes and should try to learn from them and that is what I see here a man that is trying to learn. |
