Adrian Peterson indicted on child abuse charges

[Brazil]

Pretty much this... es will do things that deserve a beating sometimes but what the can a 4 year old do to deserve that?

and a ing can take actions to avoid it happens again: leaving, call the police whatever... what a 4 y/o can do ?

oh and a mom who let that happens to her child more than once is even worst

[Trill Clinton]

i can't say that i'm surprised this happened. i understand whooping your kids but leaving marks on a 4 year old is a no-no. but if anyone can bounce back from this, its AP. thank GOD the injuriers weren't in vital areas...he made sure to focus on the legs. his family is in my prayers.

He's a demonic thug. Would you agree?

nah. it would have been demonic if he would have killed him.

Disciplining your child is an American pastime going away from it is what helped Turn us into a nation of pussies

Disciplining =/= brutally beating a 4-year-old with a stick and bragging about it

Read his texts and you'll see that it wasn't about "discipline" with him....

[spurraider21]

nah. it would have been demonic if he would have killed him.

you called the biebs demonic for making a racist joke... so i guess on your ethics scale that joke is worse than abusing a child

[Holden_Caulfield]

hes playing week 3, the ?

Its a vicious cycle until you stop it. He says he was raised that way so he does it to his kid. Terrible.

I was sure some of that would appear...it's always the case. this excuse, he is a grown man that should be able to think by himself and not simply reproduce behavior from his parents.

He can go burn in tbh

oh and nfl hypocrisy... no tape...no sanction

He added that Peterson put leaves in his mouth when he was being hit with the switch while his pants were down. The child told his mother that Peterson “likes belts and switches” and “has a whooping room.”

Obviously didn't mean to hurt him

Yessss, my fantasy team has some breathing room now, tbh..

On this topic, my dad beat me as a kid, but he used open hand and his belt, he never even punched me, let alone tortured me like Peterson seems to have done..

I don't have a problem with physically disciplining your kids, but there's a huge difference between slapping your kid around(although 4 years old is too young) and essentially torturing a kid..

Don't worry, when the kid grows up all violent, into gangs, and ed up, AP can just blame it on movies and video games. Clearly they are the reason that nigs shoot each other on every street corner all the time. I has nothing to do with their parenting.

[moisaenz]

Peterson might have crossed the line he might needs some disciplining himself but this just matters cause he is famous.

Dear god, shut the up you soft fatass got foreigner.

It's funny that this story has played out the same way that it always does with athletes, tbh..

At the end of the day, regardless of your actions, the only thing that matters is your current ability as a player(excluding situations like Aaron Hernandez, since he isn't permitted to play, obviously)..

Players like Ray Rice and Incognito are blackballed from the league because they're currently ty players that ed up, it certainly wouldn't be the case if they were still quality players..

Adrian Peterson, Rothlisberger, Ray Lewis, Vick are just a few names on a massive list of players with football immunity..

[Malik Hairston]

The White man doesn't give a about Janay Rice or Peterson's gimpy kid, they only care about s helping them win games..rightfully so, too, it's all about the product, but it's funny how the media/talking heads cover this ..

there is a big difference between disciplining and beating down... I'm sorry... you can discipline a child without slapping him or using a ing belt

using force against a child is not discipline it's being a coward and a weak er

This.

Of course you can. But pain is still a very effective vector to direct behavior. I would argue that it's the most effective way in today's society where you really can't unplug people from the Internet anymore.

I don't think the second statement makes sense at all. Using force isn't about asserting power. It's about establishing conditioning. A (good) parent doesn't hit their kids because they run out of other ideas. They do so because it gets through to people much more reliably.

I totally disagree with that

the only thing you teach to a kid when u use force is when you run out of ideas use force. People use force because they lose control not because it is more reliable. I already used moderate force and it was always because I lost control and I immediately regretted it. It is efficient on a bad way not because of the pain but because it's an humiliation for the kid.
