I could have sworn that yesterday on cbs 880 am radio, they rported a pilot of a Comair plane landed and arreested a mother of 2 children. She was allegedly abusive to her 2 and 4 year olds by hitting and cursing at them.
Does that sounds familiar to anyone? I have yet to rad about it on the net.
Ah, found it...

"DENVER (Reuters) - A California mother was charged with beating her children, aged 2 and 4, on a commercial aircraft and interfering with the flight crew.
Tamera Freeman, 38, who appeared in court on Wednesday, was arrested on Monday at Denver International Airport upon her arrival on a Frontier Airlines flight from San Francisco.
An FBI affidavit quotes passengers as saying Freeman appeared intoxicated, was abusive with her children before she boarded the plane and repeatedly hit and yelled at them during the flight.
The affidavit also alleges Freeman threw a drink at the feet of a flight attendant and followed her into an aisle yelling and pointing her finger, causing the attendant, who had intervened on the children's behalf, to feel threatened.
A spokesman for the U.S. attorney's staff, which is prosecuting Freeman, said the children were handed over to a relative.
If convicted on the felony charges, Freeman faces a maximum of 20 years in prison, but under federal sentencing guidelines her sentence is likely to be much less severe."
Assuming this is true,
And while I believe in a spanking, this was I think, uncalled for and the mother was in the wrong.
