Man jailed for slapping 6-year-old boy who caused his daughter to fall at Westgate Mall

Yep. The parents now don't have to deal with bringing up an unruly brat next time.

The 6-year-old has been taught a painful lesson through that slap. He could have been punched or kicked and landed up in a coma.

Agree. Should give warning instead ...

A warning would have resulted in that son of a bitch laughing, thinking that he got away scot free. See how he berated the boy's mom even after she made her son apologise.

Most sinkies don't know how to teach their kids so need others to do it for them

You would probably have punched that coward if he had slapped your son.

This is a silly competition. Canniteven defend oneself. First to slap has huge advantage.

Maybe should start off with both slapping each other at the same time see who toh first LOL.

Else knn, there are cases whereby the first one tio slap jitao fainted kong kah kiao already.

Father should not slap a kid. But making him go jail is a bit overdoing & witch hunt by the court. Unless the boy suffered serious injuries or death. Just a slap. Making a mountain out of molehill.

Last time in school, teachers could also slap students.

If this 39-year-old bully is not taught a lesson now, his slap could turn into a punch followed by a kick in future every time another child so much as brushes against his precious "princess" at the playground. He should have brought the boy to his mother to inform her about his bad behaviour. I guess it is too late for him now; he probably lost his job and finding another one won't be easy with a criminal record.

We all know it's wrong of him to slap a child. But what you think it's right to jail him is also too harsh. You don't punish a petty wrong act with jail or punishment not equivalent to the gravity of the crime. No balance at all. If this continues in our society, we will all turn into monsters, no more human decency.

Cane is also being used at home.
Imagine the jail filled with teachers & parents.
Spare the rod, spoil the child.
We will have lots of strawberries in near future.
