man you westerners are wusses. my cousin, for going to the waterfalls w/o my uncles permission, was tied a frickin LOG across his back (ala christ) then the dad made him jog circles around the house, which faces the main road. that lady aint got shit on my uncle. badass. BTW, my cousin recently got busted for dealing crack, so yeah, way ta go, corporal punishment.
Naw Psychological and Emotional abuse lasts much longer and leaves no physical marks. If people think this is bad, think what she could have done to make the point. I she could have him wear a fricken prison uniform, with the sign hanging off his front and back while he picked up trash off the side of the highway or main road closest to his school.
