To some extents true, but a persons belives are their own, im not going to slight a quaker reprimanding their child for the same. His belife is his, i dont want others forcing their belives on me, so not going to force mine or judge them on theirs.

If someone in the street starts punching you saying "I believe I have the right to hit you", will you say "Okay, dear sir, please continue" ?

According to your logic (he has the right to beat her because he thinks it's right to do so), you should...

Yeah all religions have their share of brutal history. But we're not living in the past, so all of that doesn't matter.

Its not the past, the christian group Hutaree still exists and is still active, that group took me about 5 seconds to find, there are others ( including the KKK ) So its not the past.

Agree with rest of comment though

Neh - flog him, then give him 30 years lockdown with a 300lb oversexed skinhead as a roomie.

lol +1

Give me 10 minutes alone in a room with him. I'll teach him a lesson he wont forget. Beating helpless girls is something a weakling does. I'd like to see him try that with a grown man. The wife is just as bad as well. These people should be banned from taking care of children.

Yea nice way to warp a comment,

No i will not say yes please continue, because i am not his child, not a minor, and he has no reason other then " i want to ". There is a diffrence between abuse and correction. Because his daughter blatenly ignored the previous forms of correction, this was an extention of the correction. Now if he just flat out came home and starting beating the crap out of her cause he felt like it, then thats wrong in any form.

But hey to each their own, you dont correct your kids, cool i get it. Back when i was younger people could go outside at night, people respected their elders. was less murders and crime,,, which has gotten worse more and more as peopel get the " dont hurt the children " attitude.

Did i say i agreed with the extreme of what he did, verry oposite, i said i disagreed with it. He went to far imo. But it it still his decision on what he allows or dissalows his children to do, as well as his views on women and corection toward children.

Personally i would have just destroyed the computer or locked it to point of her never using the comp at all, perioud. Its doubtfully he was so backwards regarding tech as stated in the ops post as he wouldnt have had a comp to begin with if it was that extreme. It essentially boiled down to his daughter blatenly not following the rules and flat out ignoring the punishment before he got to the beating part ( can be heard in the begining of the video ). So im assuming the belt was the only option she listened to.

Are you to say that if a child blatently ignores all form of non violent correction that you will just give up and let them go about their marry way,,?

I bet Josef Fritzl would loved to have had you defending him.

And how does a rapeist that impregnated his daughter and kept her in basement have any bearing what so ever to anything i said, wtf are you that unable to stinkin read. Or do you just pick a word and random and to you thats all you need. Mainly because you think i agree with what he did even though multiple times i said i didnt agree to the extent he went, but SOMEHOW you think i agree with even more extreme actions

Unless you think rape incest are a form of parental correction?

They sue for millions for show. They are almost always setteled for less. And he is a judge. I doubt money is an issue

While i do belive he went a little to far.

She was pirating stuff, the cost if she was cought would have put them beyond the poor house.

Also it was in begining of video not only did they tell her not to use the computer previously, but she reinstalled the program, you can hear the guy in begining state " and she/you reinstalled it? ".

So obviously being grounded from the computer didnt work,and she blatenly didnt care. as for it to be installed in the first place, she would have had to use it previously.

The teen was old enough to follow directions / right from wrong, so next time she will learn to follow the rules/law. But the guy did go a little to far.

I agree with everyone that this is atrocious and the law must be restored.

But I want to bring something new to the discussion. Please, read my post to the end carefully and with a clear mind.

Where is the legal system?

Looks like the cops and judges are busy sucking up MAFIAA and stealing domains claiming they saw some photo of 17 years old's ###### (these cases are reality). Or maybe they are busy jailing mothers for snapping a photo of their adorable 2-years olds playing with the bubbles in the bath (these cases are reality)? Or maybe they are putting a 16y.o. girl to jail for "distributing child pornography" after her teacher found her own half-nude photos on her cell phone (these cases are reality again)?

THIS VIDEO is what the real child abuse looks like. Not the Chris Hansen ****.

Most of the child abuse and rape happens in the child's own house. Parents, relatives, parent's friends are the most common child abusers/rapists. Shocking, no?

And what does everyone (police, lawmakers, politicians, parents and you guys) said about the child abuse in various dicscussions? Let me remind you: "you need to censor Internet to make children safe"(World), "you need to jail any 17y.o. filming themself nude to make children safe"(USA), "you need to ban erotic images of women with A-sized breast to make children safe"(Australia), "Hey, they just jailed a man with some Simpsons porn comic; Now our children are definittely safe!"(USA/Canada)

Hypocrites! Your ignorant actions have already hurt lots of children. Instead of admitting the real problem of child abuse, you succumb to the empty pledges of politicians to "make children safe" by wiretapping, censoring, tightening the laws and shattering privacy. It's so easy to just hand all your human and civil rights to police, politicians and corporations for a wague promise of protecting your children. Easy, but foolish and dangerous for everyone.

By unwillingness to admit and tackle the real problem of real child abuse of the real children, you're letting this abuse happen. In reality!

Ban me for this post, but if even a single person here wakes up and helps a real child, my words were not for nothing.

Horrible and especially for no reason :( Damn backward people...

There are way too many people like hom - in every social and education class. It's likd rape - all about control and dominance. Doesn't matter if the kid was misbehaving, this wasn't right.

I feel really sorry for that girl....I know first hand how it must have felt, as I was also whipped on many ocassions by my fu***** pop when I was a kid. And what was the reason for my lashes? Not studying properly!

The problem here in India is nothing much can be done about situations like this. If I was in the States or the U.K., I could have got him arrested with just one phone call!

This thread is what's wrong with society today. Physical punishment is seen as just the most horrific crime.

The girl disobeyed her father's order, he tried to issue a punishment (people have been getting spanked with belts for ages so he's not the first), the girl refused to accept the punishment.

I feel sorry for the family that their private life was displayed to world.

As I said ; you're crazy. You somehow think that being a parent allows you to ignore the law when it's about your kids/wife/husband, just because you call it "correction".

Well, let me tell you : it doesn't. If you beat someone with a belt, it's a crime. Period. (unless it's self-defense, of course, and in this case it clearly isn't)

@kvaughan: People had been using slaves for thousands of years, so why did we stop that? *facepalm*

On the connectivity side, the Studio Pro use Class 1 Bluetooth for a stable, long-range wireless connection. There is also a 3.5mm input if you want to plug in directly, including use with in-flight entertainment systems. Controls are located on the headphones and include a "b" button for music and call control, a volume rocker, and a multifunction button used for switching listening modes, EQ settings, power, and pairing.

    • Hands on with the ProtoArc EM25: Affordable ergonomic mouse that focuses on the right things by Taras Buria ProtoArc is known for making all sorts of office products with a big focus on ergonomics and comfort. Its latest product, the EM25, promises a comfortable-to-use, affordable, and customizable mouse. We took one for a spin; here are our impressions. The ProtoArc EM25 is a $49.99 mouse, but right now, during Prime Day 2026, you can get it for just $37.99. Right off the bat, you can see that the EM25 is inspired by Logitech's MX Master lineup and the legendary MX Master 3/3S. Its shape and proportions are very similar, so for a person with large hands (right-handed person, mind you), the EM25 is very comfortable to use. The mouse fills the palm, and the thumb rests on a small extension, giving your wrist a small tilt to reduce strain. The mouse is made of black plastic without any coating, eliminating long-term wear concerns. However, I can see the main buttons and other areas you touch the most getting polished over time. Despite its size and bulk, the mouse is not too heavy. It weighs about 100 grams, which is significantly less than the MX Master 3S and its successor. It is no lightweight gaming mouse by any means, but it is not excessively heavy like the MX Master 4. The EM25 has a built-in storage for its USB dongle. It is a cleverly made magnetic flap that you open by simply pressing on it. Next to the flap, you will find the on/off switch, the 1,000 Hz sensor, and a DPI button (up to 8,000 DPI). I find the DPI button location a bit odd, and I would prefer it somewhere below the main scroll wheel. Still, given that I never change DPI on my mice, I will let it pass. What is more important is that, unlike MX Master 3/3S/4, the device switch button is located below the left-click button, which allows you to switch devices without lifting and flipping the mouse. For a multi-device setup, this is a perfect solution: the button does not require too much effort to use, it does not get in your way, but it is also easily reachable with your thumb. The main scroll wheel has two modes: ratcheted and free-flow. You can only change between them with a bright orange button (I like this little touch of color), which is sprung and requires some effort to press. The wheel is dead-silent in free-flow mode, but ratched is quite loud and stiff, perhaps even too much to my liking. I can hardly call it deal-breaking, but it will certainly take some time to get used to. The side scroll wheel, it is notched, silent, and pleasant to use. Next to it, you can find a piece of glossed plastic with connection indicators: Dongle, Bluetooth 1, Bluetooth 2, and the low battery indicator. By the way, the built-in battery is rechargeable via a USB Type-C cable, which is included. It is sleeved and has an orange velcro strap to keep it tidy. After using the EM25 for a few weeks, I can say that its main buttons are my absolute favorite. They have very pronounced clicks, which feel great with just the right amount of force required to register a press. I would say they feel like something in between regular mouse clicks and silent ones. You can hear and feel the springy switch, but it is not sharp or loud to the point of annoying you. As for back/forward and device switch buttons, they are very clicky and quite noisy. Unfortunately, there are no extra buttons that you can map to specific things like in the MX Master lineup. Besides great primary clicks, another thing I like about the EM25 is its 1,000 Hz sensor. In the world, where Logitech still uses 125 Hz sensors in $100+ mice, seeing a much faster sensor in a mouse that costs three times less is very refreshing. Also, all the settings and customization you make are stored on-device, and you do not need to install any software. Just open the web-based app and change all that you need. Speaking of customization, you can remap what buttons do, adjust the DPI, and the sensor speed. Sadly, gestures are not supported, but you can still map pretty much anything to each button, including shortcuts, media buttons, and more. I also recommend using software like XMouseControl, as it will let you remap the side scroll wheel. At the end of the day, the ProtoArc EM25 is a great mouse. Clearly inspired by the MX Master lineup, it takes the best of it and complements it with a much more wallet-friendly price tag, significantly better sensor, on-device memory, a built-in storage for the dongle, and more (it fixes everything that I complained about the MX Master 4 recently). And for only $37.99 during Prime Day, the EM25 is an easy recommendation. Buy ProtoArc EM25 mouse - $37.99 | 24% off with Prime As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
