No More Wire Hangers, Either

It was a terrible thing to do, but it was not, apparently, officially child abuse for a mom to give her 3-year-old a swirly, chronicled in a Facebook video. She said the child had called her a derogatory name, hence dunking his head in the toilet. Authorities decided that since only the top of the kid's head got wet, and there wasn't "evidence of sufficient physical or emotional harm or impairment in this case," no further action was necessary. Which may be the case, but if you're the kid, you're going to grow up knowing that your own mother doesn't have your back. That's gotta sting a little. (Orlando Sentinel)
