I don't think this should be any big deal. Every time a 14 year old commits a crime you people scream that he should be treated as an adult, then when he is beaten by an adult he is magically a child again. Make up your minds.

I am really sick of hearing about the British celebrities. Enough already!

I think she's innocent. Mentally ill people attack children most often.

I have to agree that Canadian fans alone cannot support the NFL. Canadians are simply not fat enough as Americans to eat the necessary amount of hotdogs to produce such profits.

I think that if one parent has custody then the other is breaking the law if the take them without permission. That is what custody is, regardless of visitation rights issues.

Stand on what? He abducted his son! That is a crime in almost any country.

I think Obama gave a much more appropriate greeting. The Chinese did not bow to the Emperor of Japan. Huge insult.

It is called Bleeding-heart liberalism.

I cannot understand where all this "father's rights" movement comes from. It has no place in Japan. Children don't need fathers, in Japan or the other world, and in most cases fathers are the ones who do bad things to thier kids. The laws recognize this and are their to protect the innocent. If it wasn't so then then we would have a badly country like the USA or England, or Australia.

I don't necessarily agree that people should be punished according to the law, but I do agree that THE FAMILY LAW will never change.

But let's be fair! How do you know he isn't a wife-beater like that guy from the US? Boys do not need fathers. And they definately do not need fathers who beat their mothers senseless.

I actually don't care whether Tiger repairs his "good-boy" imagine or not. He is just a golfer, he gets paid huge money to play a sport. The fact is that we love to build up these celebrities to great heights and then rip them down and beat them to shreds.

I do not beleive there is a difference between killing living things like kangaroos, cows or whales. It is cultural, yet some people seem to believe that their culture is beyond reproach and superior.

Japan has much increasing of the child-abuse killings recently. Now I have heard that there is many in Dasaitama. I'm not sure if this is the same as Saitama, but they say that this is not a good area with good people.

Call me old fashioned but the best way to solve "nappie problems" is with a firm hand. Sometimes it is too firm, but hind-sight is 20/20. I'm no bleeding heart, but this mother is not a "murderer", she is just a "killer".

It is a good point. Frustrated and unemployed (wits-end) kind guys in other countries release themselves in much more violent ways. Thankfully Japan is not a gun-toting society.

Well the obvious solutions are: 1) No more emergency buttons. 2) Ticket machines at all donburi shops.

Ranger_Miffy: I would never encourage hitting children. I also believe hitting kids is wrong and that the effect when they grow up is negative. Although I believe 21 is young, I don't believe hitting them is the same as hitting children. Therefore I do strongly suggest corporal punishment for young adults such as Japanese University students.
