I'll beat and tie you son

i have heard of this kind of situations from my grandmother. she use to tell me how in olden days the parents would do to their childrens like this. but i think that parents are not the enemies of their children and they do it only for the childrens good. there are different possibilities to think over here. might be the son is really very naughty, his naughtiness might have crossed its limit and is been uncontrollable by mom and hence she did this to scare him, so that the child remember this punishment and do the things what he does it now and not to trouble her. and might be the people seeing this might be thinking that the mom is really very rude and she is punishing the son and how cruel she is. might be this thinking is also right sometimes when the mom is really rude and cruel in nature but its very rare. but most of the moms have a soft corner for their childrens and can never think anything wrong happening to them. might be its not a proper way to teach a child but entirely depends on the people how they been brought up and the way they thing and also their way of living reflects the kind of persons they are.

Hi Des, I give punishment to my kids but i see to it that it can't make any harm to my kids.This kind of mother is cruel.

I have never seen a situation like this before. but what i know for sure that if the mother continues to do such thing to the child he is going to become thick skinned and then nothing would matter to him. He would never want to change if she does this kind of torture to him. And might be he'll grow up to hate her mother, and that is all she'll get back from her son once he grows up. One thing i dont understand it how can mothers do such attrocities to their childs, what has the world become??

What a cruelty not worthy of a human being and imagine... a child at that! I think if given the chance, I will tie that mother in the same place and let her suffer same way as the child. How could she be that heartless. I he really her child? She must have brain damaged! Even animals should be treated well, how much more a child? I can't tolerate such a situation! If ever I spotted one I will surely report that woman to the authority. I love children so much and I know they have to be treated well and if ever they need discipline it must be done in love. We can always spank them if needed but it must be done out of love and desire to correct them and not because we hate them.

I don't think we can correct our child's mistake by punishing them that way.It would probably make him worst.I know its really hard to raise a child because some would go to the wrong path.But i guess its not good to hurt them just to correct their mistakes.Telling them always the right thing would awaken them to do the wrong thing again.Thats what i do to my child.I avoid hurting her but i always told her the right and wrong.I know new generations are very stubborn now so we can't control them by hurting them but instead doing it in a nice way would help them raise well.

I've seen a similar case on TV and I couldn't believe it at the first moment.It's a terrible way and would have great influence on that poor child.Where did you get this story?Has somebody done anything yet?

Hi djoyce, i think they should consult the children specialist.. this behavior will change the love to hatred towards mother.. this can lead children to a Pychological problem or a criminal feeling.. If the child is troblesome, even he is making mistake, find that childern is not doing it purposlly.. he need to be changed with love not with punishment.. Please if you can tell the mother this things so that they will have a happy life.. thanks and enjoy :)

The child (as well as any other children in her care) should be taken from her and she should be prosecuted for child abuse.

I don't see the reasoning for this type of behavior. There are other modes of discipline. My son is soon going to be five. In a matter of weeks. A five year old child doesn't deserve certain punishments handed down to them and being tied to a post is not good practice. I always feel for the children who endure any kind of abuse or other acts used upon them without good reason. Of course he cried the whole time because it wasn't the right approach toward his behavior.

I'm not saying one should do that but some kids need discipline. Though I totaly disagree with this. What this woman did is insane and will leave consequences for little boy. That mother will hopefully visit a shrink and pay a fine.

i have never seen such situation..but i know that these things are for real and are really happening... some misguided parents do these to their children as a disciplinary action for their wrong doings,maybe because,as a child,they experienced the ame punishment.. parents nowadays should attend seminars in proper parenting for them to be guided accordingly in raising their child.. especially those who had children at an early age.. violence is never a solution..
