Mother Accused of Abuse

Posted by Emily Behrend on August 24, 2011 at 10:08pm in Mr Bruns 360 Message Board

An Alaskan mother poured hot sauce into her kids mouth. Well, in somepeople's eyes, this is abuse, in others, it's discipline. I don't know, I think it could be the same as washing the kid's mouth with soap, or making them kneel in grits. I have heard of parents putting their kid in a cold shower for going to the bathroom in their pants. But I do agree that hot sauce is a little extreme. But why would someone do it for publicity? Who cares how you discipline your kid, as long as you do? What do you think??

*PS. Sorry all my discussions have mostly to do with kids!

I think hot sauce is a little to far. How do you even think to put hot sauce in your childs mouth? Ya children need deciplin but putting hot sause in their mouth is too far!

Ok i think that hot sause on a little kids mouth is way too far to disipline ur child. Why would you evan think about doing that. And a cold shower is too far. I would have my child put soap in there mouth for 5 mins and then sit in a time out in there room. When i saw that on tv i was completly shocked at what that mother was doing. I would never her my child like that if i had a child. I wouldn't abuse them again

I would agree that it would be kind of like disciplining a child with soap! Is it maybe a little extreme? To me, i think it depends on what the kid did and how much the mother put in the child's mouth. In a way, i think it would be a form of discipline more then a type of abuse but agian, i don't know everything that happened or how much she put in.

to what you said... " who cares how you disipline your kids, as long as you do?" I disagree because some people have real issues and are so crazy.. they are trying to disipline their child whenthey are really harming the child.There are some crazy people out there.

  I think that every child needs disiplined. There are many different views from many different people on how a parent should disipline their child. I know it may seem harsh to do such a thing, but whatever works on the kid and gets the point across should be allowed. Different kids have different ways of learning. No one said it would be easy though.

I think thats alittle strange and im pretty sure there are different methods that the parent could use besides hot sauce. Maybe timeouts, spanking, soap? But if thats what the mother wants to do thats her choice.
