Would you say that is child abuse or good parenting?

I, for one, think good parenting. Kid should have stood up.

That is actually some people's fetish, but that is another topic.

Neither? It's obviously not good parenting, but it doesn't look terribly abusive either -- I imagine the kid was being a real git and probably throwing a tantrum.

Closer to child abuse than good parenting, but not bad enough to merit legal action.

Somewhere in the middle. It wasn't the right way to solve the problem, but it wasn't exactly abusive either.

Giving the mother the benefit of the doubt here, but if it was me, I would have picked the child up and hauled him out. That video is kinda like the one of the Rodney King beating ... completely different perspective if you see what happened beforehand.

I would have stopped that mother and had a stern word with her. That shitty parenting, who the fuck does that to a child.

You would strenuously object?

It's shitty parenting for sure. This specific incident isn't child abuse, but it could be indicative of a lack of parenting skills.

I would clearly state if she continued to drag her child like an animal i would bend her over and fuck her like one.

Weeeeeeeeeell, one day your sperm count will increase and you will knock up some chick then has a kid of your own. Then you will understand.

I'm 31, super sperm already swim around in my bollocks.

If the mother of my child did that to my kid, god fucking help her.

Kid seemed to have ridden that ride before and was bored with it.

Not child abuse, but stupid. I agree with Stingray24, pick the kid up and take them out of the store. I am always ready and willing to stop what I am doing to deal with the kids properly. They know I/we will walk out of a store/restaurant/any public place to deal with them effectively.

That's a mom who doesn't know how to be a mom and as a result has sour patch kid and as a result is a sour patch mom.

Isn't that what those things are for? I don't think it's abuse but Stingray is prolly right, if she had just picked the kid up she wouldn't be all over the internet right now.
