A judge in Corpus Christi, Texas had some harsh words for a mother charged with spanking her own child before sentencing her to probation.
"You don't spank children today," said Judge Jose Longoria. "In the old days, maybe we got spanked, but there was a different quarrel. You don't spank children."
Rosalina Gonzales had pleaded guilty to a felony charge of injury to a child for what prosecutors had described as a "pretty simple, straightforward spanking case." They noted she didn't use a belt or leave any bruises, just some red marks.
As part of the plea deal, Gonzales will serve five years probation, during which time she'll have to take parenting classes, follow CPS guidelines, and make a $50 payment to the Children's Advocacy Center.
She was arrested back in December after the child's paternal grandmother noticed red marks on the child's rear end. The grandmother took the girl, who was two years-old at the time, to the hospital to be checked out.
Gonzales who doesn't have custody of the child or her other two children, is trying to get them back, but until CPS feels she is ready the kids are living with their paternal grandmother.
Thats insane! Since when is spanking your own child a Felony? I was spanked many times as a child and it did me good! Just another example of America in decline!

Absolutely. My mother had this huge hair brush with a long handle and finally one day it broke on my backsides to which she said "I'm not going to spank you anymore, Brock, since it doesn't do any good!"
Mr. Townsend: Are you being sincere or just tring to be cute? Its hard to tell by your responce. If you cant discipline your own child then they will never know the difference between whats right and wrong! The Judge and government has no right to be involved in how our children are being raised! Thats whats keeping the prison system alive and well!!
