and booze is legal? nobody smokes weed and becomes violent, a drunken rage. This pathetic drunk gets probation when he should have got an attemted murder charge and he should lose his kid before he kills him.

Come on, lets give the dad a benefit of the doubt. Sometimes kids need to be disciplined and I am sure this teaching moment will not be forgotten by the brat. Next time this kid will think twice before sassing back. Let's just hope that its not during a flight.

You dont throw your kid overboard as a means to discipline. Is thst what you would do? Oh my kid talked back to me so i'll throw him in traffic. Wow! Really!

This guy should be in jail and probation really isn't a suitable outcome for this piece of trash.

This was a during an outing with his girlfriend and two of his kids from a previous marriage. I wonder if the girlfriend is still with this guy.

Probation? probation? um, really? How about attempted murder, and child abuse? I am sick over these parents thinking children are property and can be disposed of like trash.

This is one of those times when one wishes for old school mafia justice. Warm and fuzzy probation won't work with this guy.
