A recent video (link above), showing a father, strapping boxing gloves on himself and his teenage son:

The son was verbally abusive to his teacher at school and walked out of class to impress girls in the class. Then he disobeyed his father's request to meet him after the class.

Upon arrival home, dad boxed the son and posted it online. The son did apologize for his actions; after the 'boxing'.

Update: a government agency has since taken the son from the father's home, citing abuse of a minor.

In the past: spanking, hitting, slapping, punching a child seemed to be normal. Now, the father is facing charges and losing his son.

Did the father take this too far?

How does discipline differ today vs 20 or 40 years ago?

Ahh, nobody cares. Me either.

I suspect if Thai police had disciplined their sons a crippled bread deliveryman might still be alive today.

Thanks Mike, maybe 'home schooling' is the answer.
