[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 468679, member: 84"] While I certainly wouldn't have done either of the things these two parents did...............I'd have called the cops and an ambulance if I felt the situation was bad enough to need physical restraints.........and certainly you never never never give someone else's psychiatric medications to your kid. omg But I'd say it was done in ignorance, not necessarily abuse. They'd have to give me more info before I as a juror would find them guilty of abuse on the duct tape. The medications are another matter all together. That was abusive, ignorance or not, as depending on the medications involved they could easily have ODed him. And sometimes ignorance is not enough of a defense. If a child is that out of control then you need to call in someone else to help you handle the situation. But duct tape? Naw. I don't agree with it, but the child isn't "hurt" by it either. Now that could change say he was kept that way for a long period of time ect. But it doesn't sound like that was the case. [/QUOTE]
