It is truely sad what happened to this child but it just came to my mind that we also have to feel this way about the mother too. The mother may have been raised this way herself not knowing how to be loving and affectionate. Some people do grow up in this "hard knox" type of lifestyle and know no other way and think this is perfectly normal. Although this is abuse I don't think they saw it that way or they would not have posted this vid because child abusers hide what they do.

normal thinking is not to carry abuse forward. normal thinking would steer you away from repeating the behavior. i was raised this way and would rather be burned on a cross b4 id repeat it

no one combs hair like that out of ignorance... back and forth, up and down...bet she doesnt comb her own hair like that!! but ur right abuse is usually in the dark - just shows how fk'd up she is...aka not normal!

Yes, the majority of the 40 Million African American citizens of the US are decent human beings who love and nurture their children. Unfortunately a handful draws negative attention which opens the door for some people to UNFAIRLY criticize and pass judgement on all of us.

my own mother was twice as harsh because she is a cop. she would compare herself to the parents she dealt with daily, and she felt like she had championed a great cause by not being on crack. Black people seem to feel as if they don't need to worry about being better if they know at least one person who is worse

I subbed to you for this video. I agree 1000000000%.

[middy444]

@KMELIZ21: Something is wrong with you for making such a blanket statment.

Ok everybody is talking about how the mother is wrong. And she is. But in the vid you hear others laughing and even the person recording is laughing. That make me even more pissed off,, cause nobody found what the mother was doing to be bad. It was just a damn comedy show. And the lil girl is so beautiful,, I really hope this doesnt scar her for life... SMH...

This is horrible...but again we can't just look at the results we gotta look at the cause/root of the problem cause this is a/one of the major issues we have...Precious is another. We gotta start talking about some shit cause the hair thing is getting ridiculous.. peeps should catch some joy de leary on here..

THIS SHIT AIN'T FUNNY!!!!

This is a Black woman out of control and trapped in adolescent behavior. She obviously does not want this little girl and the sibling is laughing! Unbelievable! The abusive language the mother uses is scarring this child. This is not slavery but a Black woman out of control with no honor!

[smashingsplendid]

that video is really disturbing, nothing that woman is doing is changing that kid's hair, it's already brushed out- why more?!

i think that's what keeps the world in a mess not just a selection of black people, feminism should never be ridiculed by the media in the way that it is.

Slavery has and continues to do a number on the majority of blacks who choose or are too ignorant to open their eyes, thank God I have opened my eyes and continue to do so.
