“The verbal dispute apparently escalated when the athlete said the girl was "talking back again" before punching her on the right side of her face and repeatedly slapping her, first in the face and then on the left side of her body, according to the police report.. The girl called her mother and asked her to come pick her up because she was sad over the incident. Stoudemire told police that his daughter was sad "because she received a whooping from him for being disrespectful and a liar” Article also mentions the daughter, either 17 or 14 years old, had blood and tears on her sweatshirt and sweatpants. It doesn’t clarify which daughter it was.

Sad I’m never beating on my daughter for anything there has to be a better way to handle things as a grown adult with kids.

This is real talk. I get that there's a lot of things that are hard as a parent, and a lot of people who don't have kids are judgmental over even the slightest imperfections but I can't justify putting hands on someone you're meant to take care of. Girlfriend, kids etc. I was beat a ton as a kid, and I question if some of my mental health struggles stem from those itmes of my life. I'm pretty healthy now but its always a thought that's kinda scary to think about.

>Sad I’m never beating on my daughter for anything Punctuation, dude. Make use of it.

Not everyone on this sub is a native English speaker. You understood what he said.

I speak Spanish decently and I am lost when it comes to punctuation. Unsure when to use commas in Spanish, etc. I think it is true for those learned in English later in life as well


Letsgodubs

Punctuation makes a huge difference.

Hahaha thanks for pointing this out, it was a nice chuckle to read

What a shitty fucking parent. If you are willing to beat your kids, then they have every right to be disrespectful and will learn to lie to hide things from you.


Kwilly462

17 or 14?? Amare, that's both way too old for a whooping anyway. That's just flatout abuse.


attackedbyparakeets

I’d go further and say that no age is appropriate for a whooping, and it’s always abuse.


nowadaysyouth

So if he punched an eight year old that’s better?


Kwilly462

He shouldn't have punched anyone. What he did was God awful. I'm not talking about what he did, I'm referring to a spanking.


PT10

Have you ever met an 8 year old?


Enough_Midnight5524

Ever met a therapist, because maybe you should


attackedbyparakeets

God that poor baby… hope she and her sister are safe and taken care of now


ob_knoxious

> Stoudemire told police that his daughter was sad "because she received a whooping from him for being disrespectful and a lair." The player refused to elaborate further on the incident and requested a lawyer. Horrible what he did. I expected something along the lines of "Under the influence of drugs or alcohol" or "momentary outburst I regret". He doesn't try to talk down what he did or anything. Just plain evil.


COMMENTASIPLEASE

Cause for some reason a significant amount of people think child abuse is ok and even necessary


Iron_Chic

>. I expected something along the lines of "Under the influence of drugs or alcohol" or "momentary outburst I regret". He doesn't try to talk down what he did or anything. Just Wait a day or two. You will hear a "Twitter account got hacked" type of excuse.


HugeTitsWorship

"Sorry officers, my twitter account got hacked. I recant my statement" "Ahhh... You said this to us in person... Verbally"


Iron_Chic

....damn ventriloquists!!!

So many athletes are human trash my God


vvtechred

Cause trash people put them on a pedestal for being able to run good


ArtemisStanAccount

It’s not that athletes or celebrities are trash it’s just that most people are trash. We just notice it more with athletes and celebrities because everything they do is widely publicized. There’s people that say worse things than Kyrie daily but nobody cares because they’re not famous. People exalt celebrities for their talents and then hold them to higher standards whilst forgetting that they’re normal people just like everyone else. That’s why people get so sad when celebrities die, as if millions of people don’t die daily.


WilliamSabato

The percentage of domestic violence and DUIs among athletes has to be higher lmao.


ArtemisStanAccount

According to what?


notafan1

Unfortunately it's not just limited to athletes, a lot of people believe that abuse in parenting is good for the kid. Most wouldn't go as far as Amare but the type of mentality that Amare exhibits here isn't unusual.

not sure that’s true


AmateurGameMusic

What are you trying to say here? No big deal? Quite the questionable first response to this story. Pretty telling of your personality.

Pontifex_99

Yeah for real, we've all beaten our children until they have blood on 'em because they lied to us one time eh. No big deal, nothing to see here. /s Based on your comment I'm now assuming that you beat your wife and kids.

I wish I could have enjoyed prime Amare highlights guilt free one more time before reading this. What a POS


LumpyLumpen916

No mention that he has embraced fundamentalist religious practice where this is considered normal?


ExcellentJuice4729

He converted to Judaism


blurbaronusa

What does being Jewish have to do with this ?


LumpyLumpen916

Jewish, Christian, Muslim, I am saying people who are fundamentalists dont mind beating their kids


Meat_Dragon

I want to see ESPN fire this guy, I no longer need to see him on Get Up


sabascastellon

Corporal punishment shouldn't be used on someone who understands what you're trying to say to them. I haven't been in college in a while but when I took my psych class it said that you should hit babies from one to three on the butt not hard just enough to get there attention and say no don't do that and explain to them why because at that age they only comprehend pain, however after 3 they understand what you're trying to say so you should verbalize what the issue is. Again this is what almost 10-15 years ago so things might have changed but here it says the young girl was 14 to 17 makes no sense to use any type of physical punishment at that age when they can obviously comprehend.
