This child is a good example of how children behave when corpal punishment has not been used in the up bringing. Even the Bible states that to spare the rod is to spoil the child. I don't mean abuse, but, proper discipline should be adminsistered when the behavior warrants it. I was spanked as a child and when I became an adult, I thanked my parents for loving me and teaching me by proper discipline. This young boy did not have respect for his Mother and she missed the boat long ago when he was younger and more easily taught. It will be much harder now that this bad attitude kid has gotten away with so much wrong doing.
