Just imagine if husband was to whip his wife with a belt or branch to the point she had bruises a week later and then said…..
“I only beat you because I love you.”
You would say that was a classic case of the abuser trying to justify their actions of abuse. Now, listen to what Adrian Peterson’s mom had to say via the Houston Chronicle.
“I don’t care what anybody says. Most of us disciplined our kids a little more than we meant sometimes,” Jackson, 50, said in an interview from her home in Spring, a Houston suburb. “But we were only trying to prepare them for the real world.”
“When you whip those you love, it’s not about abuse, but love,” Jackson added, accompanied by her current husband, a Baptist minister. “You want to make them understand that they did wrong.”
She ended her quotes with saying only God can judge them, I believe if God saw the photos he would be judging fairly harshly.
