After apparently finding her son dressed in black riot gear, a Baltimore woman was captured on camera slapping the young man and marching him away from the police. The scene quickly went viral online, with the woman being dubbed “Mother of the Year.

But wait just one minute....... I thought that everyone one out there was against a parent striking their child???
is she mother of the year?? Everyone talks about making it illegal to hit their child and now someone is mother of the year for doing it???

I am so confused
 
spare the rod...spoil the child

not advocating child abuse or beating...but sometimes kids need a good slap upside the head...disipline, nothing wrong with that
 
Too many mothers lose their son's to violence and death in the streets I'm sure she doesn't want that for her son, kudos to this mother for making her son toe-the-line. This teenage boy should thank God he has a mother who loves him enough to do that.
 
Actually, I just stated the other day that I have no problem with "striking a child" and had said that I believe it should stop when the child is old enough to be reasoned with. Obviously, regardless of his age, this child was NOT old enough to be reasoned with.

She's got my vote for Mother of the Year. To me, the thing that was REALLY disturbing is that he actually tried to hit her back...like she was one of his buddies messing with him...or one of his girlfriends slapping on him.

I hope she continued the ass-whoopin' when she got him home, behind closed doors and without cell phone video footage.
 
okay, so then contrary to earlier debates it is all right then to hit your child when the appropriate circumstances call for it.

Why are you looking for a "one-size-fits-all" solution by determining that since the majority [seem to] feel it's OK to strike a teenage child for dressing up like a Ninja and looting and pillaging in the streets,

it's OK to strike a 5-YO for forgetting his jacket at school?!?

Not looking for a one size fits all, it is just I had the arse ripped off me once for saying that I do believe that sometimes under appropriate circumstances kids need a slap, and here is a woman being called Mother of the Year now by everyone for doing just that. I fully agree with it, just surprised at the sudden shift in public belief.
 
Pretty sad she had to resort to this to knock some sense into her dumb-ass child, but sometimes you just cannot get through to them no matter how well you try to raise them. I hope this kid learned his lesson.
 
If all the parents did what this woman did, they wouldn't need to call out the National Guard.
 
She should have brought a stick with her and beat the crap out of that punk all the way to a jail if he participated in any of the rioting.

Should have been the dad doing that but the left and feminazi's along with that city has obliterated the black family structure.

There is a difference between abuse and discipline. I think I've smacked my child twice in 15 years.

Both times when they put themselves in danger.

I say good for her.
 
a good mother to go and get her son? perhaps, but the mother of the year? :|
