[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone in this thread is massively overreacting [/quote]

So...it's okay for a father to cuss at an 8 year old and to grab the same 8 yo by the throat and toss them onto a bed? My kids are 13 and 15 and we have never even come close to cussing them and have never been violent to them.[/quote]

Saying the f-word at your children is completely unacceptable and a line that should never be crossed.[/quote]

You read through this thread and all of the people saying "you're overreacting!" and you realize why we have so many young men shooting up this country. Everything is an overreaction till it isn't. OP these are giant flaming red flags. Please make changes for your children's sake. [/quote]

Or you realize that so many young men are not give ANY pushback to violence when they're growing up, so they think violence is okay. He swung at his father. His father pushed him away. I think that's justified. Don't teach your kids the world will treat everything they do as a "teachable moment." Sometime they get back what they deserve, on a gut level.[/quote]
+1. I think this thread is full of women that find a more overtly masculine-style parenting of man to boy to be too scary and dangerous and want to shelter the boy, even if it means calling CPS on your own husband. Which ironically enough feeds even more into the school shooter phenomenon than having your dad drop an F bomb on you when you’re acting up ever did.[/quote]

Screaming go eff yourself and grabbing a kid by the neck is not discipline. It's a sign you have lost control of yourself and the situation.
There are ways to physically and verbally restrain a child who is out of control swearing at them and grabbing by the neck is not the way to do that

Now I don't think OP needs to leave right away but her husband must get help with his temper and they both have to learn to parent this child differently so that he doesn't become a danger to himself and others[/quote]
