I saw an advertisement for that show and refused to watch it because I KNEW it would upset me bad. I agree, from the little I saw she should not be a mother. I can't fathom doing that to my babies for a SECOND. I cried just from the one minute advertisement for that show.

Oh, wow, did you see that?! That was crazy. I know kids can push your buttons, but there has to be a better way to get this boys attention. She should have seeked help. I remember I went to bed crying one day because I realized i have been being to hard on my daughter and that was breaking her down. I was so greatful for that realization and that I was able to wake up the next morning and apologize and told her that I was wrong and I will not yell at her the way I did. This takes away from there selfesteem and ...since then she has became this different person (and so have I).

@bethany--yes i have said something about another persons parenting. if i see someone doing something that i know is abuse then yes i say something. i was abused when i was younger and i wish i had the guts to say something sooner than i did or that someone would have stood up for me. my birth mom knew it was going on the whole time but she just let her husband do it. so no i dont stand back because i should mind my own business. i think everyone should stand up when they see a child being abused or if they think a child might be being abused. im not the type of person to confront anyone but another side of me comes out when i see a child being mistreated.

That broke my heart. I feel so sorry for those children. That woman is sick, and those children should be taken out of that home until that lady can prove that she is able to control herself.

I guess people don't know how they'll react to a situation until it's happening. Parenting is rarely entered into with a psyche test and councelling. That only happens if things go wrong, and even then, only sometimes.

And people stand back because, well, have you ever commented on another's parenting? Rarely a good reaction. Everyone learns very quickly to mind their own business.

I saw a bit of it but had to change the channel it was just to hard to watch such terrible parenting.
