An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. As my grandfather used to say...they should punish the wrong doers in such a way that they suffer as much as the victim did. I have to agree with that. Poor girl...I can't understand how parents can do anything even remotely close to that to their own child... I know children can annoy and emotionally hurt parents but this response goes wayyyy beyond that. It isn't the answer to anything but to create more violence.
