After all these years, you haven’t missed a step.
She has cerebral paulsy and lived in an abusive home, so she is going to be fragile emotionally and mentally.
Her father, the judge, was running for re-election. She released the video because she doesn’t think he deserves that sort of position.
She was right to do so when she did.
People have serious misconceptions about the effects of abuse. It’s not so much that every person who is abused will become a raving looney, but rather the effect that being deprived of normal healthy relationships that most people take for granted. Under abuse any sort of love you receive from your abuser is always underscored by abuse, or at least the threat of it. When an abusive person reaches out to love you, watch out! cause it’s usually going to be conditional, or done just to lure you in for more abuse. It’s a never ending emotional cycle, much like a dog that you kick all the time having to wonder when you’re going to kick it next even when you’re petting it.
You can’t just look at a person’s online accounts and judge their emotional health. Often times, people can appear to be just fine simply because they are so used to living with the abuse it’s normal to them. If they ever get out of the abuse cycle, then sometimes they even feel unable to cope without being abused simply because that’s the only way they’re used to being treated. It’s a real mind fuck and no fun at all. I really feel sorry for that girl for a number of reasons.
Oh, and corporal punishment itself isn’t’ abuse. We even had this in school in my day and I literally lost count of how many times I got it. There were no sudden increases in emotional dysfunctions brought on by the abuse of being hit with a paddle, either. There were kids who would sit down and shut up because they didn’t want the pain and social stigma of getting spanked at school. I think the laws against spanking or whatever we have now (cause I really don’t think there’s a actual law against it other that now commonly being considered abuse) is to stop people like this who take it too far. It was never intended to stop your good ole grandma from slangin’ a belt against 'yo big dumb ass when you do something stupid. Kids probably need more of that. What they don’t need is to be told over and over again that they are entitled to do whatever they want with no repercussions to the point that when someone does actually oppose them they go bonkers and get violent because they haven’t been taught anything other that basic instinct. We’re going backwards in that regard.
Abuse doesn’t even have to be physical. Just making a child take on your responsibilities as a parent is… abuse. This without a harsh word, or any violence whatsoever can be emotionally abusive to a child.
link?
Nah, it’s not a black thing. It’s just a poor uneducated thing.
Basically, if the parents own a computer and have five minutes of time they can google scientific studies showing that physical punishment is no good and that there are better alternatives.
That’s not to say that the video was bad at all though. I was expecting much worse to be honest. I mean, just do a sport in high school and you’ll have much worse things happen to you in the locker room.
This had me dying lol.
Love how it only took a day for the black mail angle to be realized by the public. Hope her mercedes breaks down next to a circus and that bitch gets mauled by a dancing bear on a unicycle.
It’s one thing to be bullied at school by random douchebags. It’s another to live in an abusive household with a psycho-father.
She wasn’t doing it for sympathy anyway, she released the video to prevent him from getting re-elected as a judge. He doesn’t deserve that public position.
But how will he pay her car payments?

She sounds like your typical srk shit head except that she has actual talent.
Blackmailing is a talent?
Refering to the very coordination heavy skill that s being a piano prodigy. Not the black mail or the playing of Sonic the hedgehog, since the new sonics are retard easy.
Did they ever specify the kind of cerebral palsy she’s supposed to have? That article says it effects her hands but the same article refers to her as a “piano prodigy.”
Not sure but after some research I found out that I sucked ass at Sonic and Knuckles.
this thread is getting boring, back to people talking about how much they were beat when they were kids, pls. i like knowing what kind of sick, low self esteem twisted fucks i inhabit this internet with 
Well let me tell you about the time I copped a feel off of Daisey Fuentes and was so ecstatic that I gave her body guard a hug. Our dicks touched.
but there has to be a bar set, and where do you set that bar? this doesn’t qualify as the worst form of physical abuse because she wasn’t even seriously hurt. and she wasn’t hit above the waist. Who gets to say, that’s to much or not enough.
oh you mean households where parents can just throw money at their kids to keep them in line, and then breed habits of self entitlement and a breed a belief that good behavior warrants a reward.
Lulz
No, instead to discipline your child you take the easy way out and inflict physical on them even though it’s been proven, by tons of well educated people far more knowledgeable in the subject then you and I will ever be, to be a failure of a punishment method. You do that instead of using your critical thinking, as well as getting advice from scientific study.
Come here kid, time for the herpa derpa belt because I’m too stupid and inept to come up with an effective way of training you to be a respectable adult without whacking you on the ass.
Wait is your strawman spanking their child with a belt or punching it in the face? I seem to have lost track halfway through that post.
Uh what?
So what is this training method that instills the proper moral compass that all you guys have used on these wonderful children that you have raised to be responsible adults?
We are listening, please learn us oh wise ones.
more assumptions from the left.
NOt all transgression are going to be dealt with in a physical manner. These studies you talk about claim that hitting your kid is bad and other methods should be used. Well yes you should be creative with your punishments, but not all kids respond the same, and the left, in usual fashion, assumes that all kids respond the same to kind of stimuli.
What the fuck am I supposed to do when I catch my kid doing drugs, or stealing, or when he throws a fucking temper tantrum in the middle of the store because I don’t want to buy him a little toy. Talk to him? when that fails then what, deal with it and let him think that such behavior is acceptable.
Perhaps your side should use critical thinking and deduce that not all situations can be dealt with a little pep talk. And not all kids respond to the same parenting methods that worked for your situation.
And seriously, this data or research you talk about.
Did it say what kind of abuse. Knowing the groups that fund these little escapades like to group everything in one category to exaggerate their results, did it say what kind of abuse. Or did it just say abuse, because if it simply says,
Abuse is bad, mmmkaaay
then why even bother with halved ass shit like that.
and if it does say physical abuse, did it take into consideration if verbal abuse.
Out of all these studies was verbal abuse observed. Out of this many case studies x amount of kids abused y % of kids suffered verbal abuse. Because clearly verbal abuse does more damage to a child than physical abuse could hope to achieve.
If your research isn’t showing this, or differentiating this sort of information then perhaps your the one who should think critically about the situation and stop relying on such case studies.
