[quote=Anonymous]Unlike most of DCUM, I think there is a difference between physical discipline and abuse. I consider what he is doing abuse. These kids are too old to be spanked, and what he’s doing goes far beyond three light swats with a hand. Discipline should never be done in anger. It also should never harm the child. If it leaves a bruise, red mark, or any other injury, I consider it abuse. Everything you describe sounds excessive. Giving your daughter an eye injury sounds like something that could have impaired her vision for the rest of her life. If you’re worried about their safety (and I think you should be), you need to take steps to protect them. Talk to a lawyer, document everything, and ask your lawyer about involving social services. I’m certainly no legal expert, but I think the 50/50 custody needs to be replaced with supervised visits.[/quote]
