Seriously?

This is the most heartbreaking thing I have seen in a while.

As a Nigerian I am no stranger to corporal punishment, but there is a very clear line after which corporal punishment turns into abuse.

This makes me so angry. Especially the reason the father gave for doing this. So what? Your child doesn't know how old he is. If he doesn't know, tell him. He's only five years old for goodness' sake.

I am convinced this man has a mental problem.

Poor kid. They should be taken away from him and placed with a family that love them for the gifts that they are.


Update: So I was reading the comments on the post, and of course everyone was infuriated at the evil man and his disgusting behaviour, and everything was going so well... until I saw this comment.

Chinese racism never ends does it?


7 sugabellisms:

  1. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS MAN. I WOULDN'T DO THIS TO A CHILD. THE MOTHER SHOULD HAVE TAKEN THEM WITH HER BUT HE PROBABLY WOULDN'T LET HER. I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER SEEN KIDS BEING ABUSED THIS WAY. IT'S SO SAD AND HE CUT THE CHILD'S FET ITH SISSORS AND NEEDLESM THAT'S CRUEL THE WHOLE THING IS JUST CRUEL. I HOPE HE GETS SOME SERIOUS JAIL TIME FOR DOING THIS SHIT.

    WHOEVER WROTE HE MUST HAVE BLACK NIGERIAN BLOOD NO, HE DON'T HAVE THAT, HE MUST HAVE THAT WANNA BE WHITE BLOOD LIKE MANY OF HIS/HER FELLOW COUNTRYMEN.

  4. those pictures were really disturbing. as for the comment, it is definitely racist, Nigeria's name has suffered o!

    and...somehow i believe this was not even written by a Chinese person. it's a comment from Chinasmack isn't it? that site is catered to English-speaking people, i'm yet to meet a Chinese person who knows the "popular news" that website talks about (the story is different when it comes to ChinaHush though). anyway the internet is always an annoying place. people who leave racist comments know they cannot say it in real life...

  5. Can't you guys see that the guy was being sarcastic and was actually making the point that there are bad people everywhere, didn't you notice the quotation marks?

  6. @Gin: Go read major chinese and japanese blogs and entertainment/news websites for three months.

    After that bring me back a list of how many times you've seen Black people being referred to as criminals, suspicious, ugly, untrustworthy, devils, evil, and so on.

    I promise you, you'll need a couple of notebooks for all your tally marks.

    He has them in quotation marks because he can't write grammatically correct English well. Most of the comments on these websites are like this with punctuation marks in strange places conveying emotions that are completely at odds with the written words.

    If this was the first time, maybe I'd agree with you. But this is like the thousandth time. I've wised up since then.

  7. This is quite revealing. I'd never thought racism is that pronounced there.
