Re: Adrien Peterson indicted on child abuse charges
 

But Papz, most of the initial info was that he simply took a switch to one of his kids and most of us have had that happen to us. Don't hold peoples initial responses against them. No one knew that it was exponentially worse than Grandma taking a switch to your butt as an out of line 13 year old.

If what we know now is true, AP will go to prison and deserves to, and the NFL will suspend him indefinitely, likely forever.

I agree that is excessive.

Those pictures are disturbing.

Re: Adrien Peterson indicted on child abuse charges
 

Not to me.

Re: Adrien Peterson indicted on child abuse charges
 

Maybe it should.

Re: Adrien Peterson indicted on child abuse charges
 

I'm not surprised

Re: Adrien Peterson indicted on child abuse charges
 

I've had whippings with a belt that were the width of the belt and were mainly on the back of my legs and butt and were blue black.

Hard to sit all day in school and not let anyone know.

Fortunately I didn't get many switch whippings from my grandparents and when I did they were always with pants on

Re: Adrien Peterson indicted on child abuse charges
 

Using a switch is illegal? I am going to report my grandmothers & mom. Lol, wait a minute , I am going to jail too! Nevermind

Re: Adrien Peterson indicted on child abuse charges
 

Ok. No, some of us posted BEFORE we heard the entire report or saw the pictures.

Spanking on the bottom and punishment, all A-Ok!!!!

Beating, NO.

Growing up for me, never a switch .
My mom liked to used a belt to the bottom. My dad punished and THAT hurt. Getting a "No" to something hurts. No tv. OUCH!!!!

Luckily my brother and I were not too out of order.

APeterson, gooood-bye!!!!!!!!!!! He is out! Done.
NFL has to put him, this distraction, out too.

I have a feeling his baby mama of this will tweet how he has worked his azz off all his life for this career....Yeah, because her funding is going to be cut.

What a mess!!

It is time for football!!!! WE all want to see some games at Week 2. ENOUGH of all of this!

I think the NFL will act swiftly with the APeterson case too. Be done with it and him and whatever the law, baby mama, courts, etc. do, whatever.

No more football distractions.

It's a switch to bare skin. That's what it's going to do. He didn't purposely hit the boy in the nuts. He didn't do this with intent to injure his child. He overreacted a bit, but so is everybody else. Broken bones and black eyes is child abuse. A switch on your ass is something many people have been on the receiving end of. All of this **** is stupid.
