The father of a Florida seventh grader whose profanity-laced video prompted online death threats last year has been arrested for allegedly assaulting his daughter.
Gene Leonhardt, 53, was charged by police in Marion County, Fla., with child abuse in the incident, which occurred last month.
According to the police report, first reported on the website Smoking Gun, the girl said she had been arguing with her father when he "punched her, causing her to have a bloody and swollen lips."
Leonhardt pleaded not guilty to the child abuse charge and was freed on $5,000 bond.
i guess that's because we don't live in the same country, but explain me how you can force someone to do something when he/she really doesn't want to obey ?
You give her ritalin or other drugs (neuroleptics) ?
It is natural for a daughter to obey, and if not, you give her drug ?
I would just slap her face.
