Isn't this getting carried away?.

AN AMERICAN mother is facing child neglect charges after she made her two children walk to school after they missed their morning bus.

32-year-old Lisa Marie Palmer reportedly forced her daughters to start walking the 4km route to school in cold weather, while she slowly drove her gold Cadilac 50m ahead of them.

The Chattanooga Times Free Press said the woman was charged after authorities found her, the children and the family dog almost halfway to school. Mrs Palmer said she was punishing the pair for missing their bus.

The Sheriff’s deputy Chriss Ladd said the girls, who were both aged under 10, had about 3km of walking to go before they reached the school.
It “appeared as if she [Mrs Palmer] was driving ahead of the children and allowing them to walk and catch up to her vehicle and to proceed with that action until the children reached the school,” Ladd’s report said.

“Temperatures were cold, and traffic was beginning to become heavy with citizens heading to work,” Ladd said. “Mrs. Palmer was in no position to reach her children safely in the event of an emergency.”

She is also accused of driving without a licence, and will appear in court on 18th April.

Any kind of hitting is wrong, violence begets violence, imo. That walk doesn't constitute abuse, obviously, she followed them to make sure they got there safe, that in itself says something. But like everything it's perceived differently by different people.Some people categorize hollering as being abusive.

In fact anything negative may be construed as abuse...................

Actually, leftists know that the mother's actions don't constitute abuse. But, they are expanding their 'empire' by complaining about the mother's behaviour. The next course of action by the leftists will be to do a study, develop policy recommendations based upon the 'findings' of such a study, and then lobby for and enact change with the study findings as the blueprint. All these reactions create more 'industry' for the leftists. It is the equivalent to a drug manufacturer introducing a virus and then developing a cure for the virus.

Leftists are the most dishonest people in society. The most selfish, the most intolerant. They seek control and they love to skim proceeds from every activity, very similar to the Mafia.

One of the funniest examples of leftism is when Barack Obama cancelled the DC Voucher program for inner-city, poverty-stricken children who were being sent to better private schools and exceling their studies. Barack claimed that public schools had to be encouraged, supported and invested in and so he was cancelling the kids opportunities to continue at the private schools and sending them to public schools. Ironic thing is that the private schools were producing better test results and academic achievements amongst the kids and doing it for $2,000 less per student per year than the public schools.

And then you know what Barack did in regards to his own kids? He sent them to private school. LOL. You can't make this shit up.

Leftists, whether those complaining about kids walking to school or whether Barack and his kids, are total scum. They have no decency within them. Their souls are like black holes.

I am libertarian and wish that government was severely limited to no more than 5% of the economy. Unfortunately, the majority of people in our society think of government as their Mother and Father. So, my dream of freedom and cooperation based upon voluntary action will never happen.

As far as government 'leaders' go, Trump would be a better president than Clinton. But, I don't like government regardless. Clinton would be an improvement over Obama though. Obama is evil - no soul whatsoever.
