Lets review...
the child is disobedient, lies, cheats, and steals, most likely through peer pressure and the influence of external forces, because its obvious the judge and his wife arent the causes. They just have to deal with it. The kid has brought this into the home. I think the computer stuff was the last straw and what you seen has built up over time. Dad said no games and that means no games. Period. And when he said 6 month sentance for something, she got even more upset.
sounds like a prime case for a good ass whooping to me. I would have gotten worse.
remember the guy is (supposedly) a judge, so he knows the rammifications of such things in the legal system. Ruined lives, no good job, inability to provide for a family, hefty fines, and prison time. Powerful motivators for a judge to ensure his kids do not turn out like the people in his court.
A parents job is to prepare their kids for adulthood and hope they taught them good enough to make their lives and the lives of their grandbabies better.
I believe this is more about attempting to correct her behavior. Not abuse.
There is obviously a long history of bad behaviour.
That said, I have a very difficult time disciplining my daughters. The boys are much easier for me. The wife disciplines the daughters and they always run to me and I cave. They are my little princesses.
We need to stay out of other peoples homes. So does the government, except in cases of REAL abuse. This is not real abuse in my opinion.

The PROBLEM in today's society is violence and ignorance.
Creating even more violence will never make the violence stop, it only perpetuates and accentuates it. "
ummm okkkk,

They say Lincoln abolished slavery, what a crock that is. He just made Everyone else slaves and turned the whole country into a plantation.
Well I am sick of it!
I am an abolitionist. I am here to end slavery.
Just keep spreading the truth, that's their weakness.
This system of slavery is built upon lies. "

A beating would be if he came in, smashed her in the face a few times with the belt, broke her nose, grabbed her by the head and slammed it into the wall a few times, really get some blood flowing.
What she got were some smacks with a leather belt on her legs and arms.

Your backpedaling has now become pathetic and extremely ignorant. In your own words you even said it was "for sure over the top", and now you're trying to sell us on the argument that it's now based on "just because I don't do what you do, doesn't make what you do evil"? If you even know it was over the top, and even commented on such, you DO know for a fact that it is over the top and abusive. Regular discipline is as such, but "over the top", is abusive. Physical discipline is already borderline abusive, but going "over the top" pushes it into the category of abusive. This shouldn't be hard to understand.

I didn't say ie:abusive.
I said over the line of what I would do.
Big difference.
Just because I don't do what you do, doesn't make what you do evil.
Please think about it.
