Nowadays it is easy to just take the side of the victim. But I don't think that is what should be done.
I don't know what happened or why he done that, perhaps she said something that really ticked him or perhaps she lost respect for the guy that made him nuts.
Way back in my time that is nothing compared to the discipline we got. Yeah, it might sound harsh but these days kids or children need to be disciplined. Else, they'd feel that they can flutter all the child rights and human rights around and people no longer get the respect they earned.

Laydee, you are right that discipline is an essential part of raising children. But throwing a glass mug at a child is simply unexceptable behavior. What if that glass mug would of hit the child in a sensitive part of the brain and put her in a coma. Discipline while is a precursor of abuse. I grew up when corporal punishment was an acceptable practice in society, while I was spanked severly and often, my parents never hurled heavy glass objects at me. Just thought I would mention that. No pun intended.

Well that Glass Mug Throwing can be Very Dangerous. Even it Hits some Surface and not a Person. I Hope he Missed Your Sister Totally. Does this Happen Often If so then Your Father is Abusive to His Family. You need Help if this Happened a few Time already. Your Mom should take some Proper Action or is She Scared of Your Father. does She get Abused to. If So then Tell an Older Relative. What is Happening. Don't
Wait till Somebody gets Badly Hurt on Body and in Mind to.

assuming that your sister's done something offensive, the slapping would be ok i guess. but the mug part is a bit...disturbing. it's way too dangerous and could hurt your sister real bad.
there are better and safer ways to reprimand people. yes, some situations may require the iron fist, but both parties (in this case, your sister and father) must consider the appropriate reaction to avoid further damage, either physical or emotional.
that's just what i think.
as for you, don't be a mere onlooker, take part in the action! just joking. (sorry if the joke was inappropriate) i know it's easier said than done. i have experienced watching my parents fight while i sat crying. i couldn't move. traumatic it was. but if want to protect your sister, please do try to keep her from getting harmed. you'll probably know what to do when you're in the situation.

Oh, your sister must have made your father so furious.
But I think throwing a mug towards a child is uncalled for.
A parent can have his own way or method of discipline but there must also be a limitation to it.
Discipline is different from physical mistreatment.
Being a sibling, I think you have the right to weigh and consider things and decide how much is too much...

Your father should'nt be that voilent because throwing a glass mug onto her is intented to hurt her and not scare her for her disciplines or for any mistake she has done. he is intented to hurt her.IF i was in your place o would have stopped him from doing that ........
