Exaaactly.
And what could a four-year-old possibly do wrong to make a parent think that this was OK? Pee their pants? Color outside the lines? This is simply unacceptable. If the NFL wants to see "the legal process play out" prior to making any judgments, they should do so while Peterson takes a paid leave of absence.
ETA: DrPhil, I know that your question isn't directly related to the Peterson case, and it speaks more to the "definition" of child abuse in general, but I still wanted to make my point regarding the case.
I'm interested to see where this conversation goes...
