Mom Arrested for Washing Kid's Mouth With Soap

A Palm Bay woman and her boyfriend were arrested Monday for child abuse after the couple went old school to punish their 8-year-old daughter for swearing.

They washed her mouth out with soap.

We don't know about you, but we would petition President Obama and Congress to make it mandatory for every parent to carry a bar of Irish Spring in their back pockets with all the profanity kids use today.

Police claim Adriyanna Herdener and Wilfredo Rivera went too far by placing a bar of soap in the girl's mouth and letting it stay for 10 minutes. Herdener did not intervene in the discipline.

Wow, if they used these guidelines when I was a kid my parents would still not be eligible for parole.

The elitists are enforcing their 1st Commandment -

thou shalt have no authority but us.

That means that parents and especially fathers will have no say in the raising of children.

Ma would put the bar of soap in my mouth.

Dad would follow-up with the belt when he got home.

Then they’d want to know where I learned it. If it was from somebody they knew, they would call his parents.

They messed up...See,what you do is insert the bar in the mouth and work it around for just a minute or so. It sticks to the teeth and gets that mouth nice and clean. They shouldn't have left it in for ten minutes.If it's done right,it doesn't take but a minute or so of your time to get the message across.

(Not that I would know...just sayin'...:)

The girl eventually vomited and Rivera took her to the local hospital, where hospital staff called police.

Duh.

My sister put soap in her kid’s mouth. She heard the other two giggling. When she turned around the oldest was blowing bubbles around the bar that was still in his mouth.

The children will be informing on their parents for cash and prizes soon.

I’m “dropping off the grid” if that happens.

My mom made me bite a chunk off chew it for while.

Gods, I can still taste that stuff even after all these years...

Couple of strokes on the tongue with a fresh bar does wonders. ;-)

Vinegar or hotsauce for “misuse of the tongue”.

Duh.<<

Seriously. I would have looked at her and told her to clean it up.

That’s what my Dear Departed Dad would have done and he was a wise man.
