Ever think about limits, especialy your own?

Ever consider life so bad you have to set a limit to the grief or punishment you endure?

It seems the 8-year-old boy in Arizona who is charged with murdering his father and the man renting a room in their house had a limit.

1,000 spankings.

1,000.

One Thousand.

Think of an eight-year-old boy keeping a list of the spankings he received, probably for the meerest of reasons.

The irony in this story is father was troubled over whether to give his son a rifle to shoot prairie dogs.

Seems the boy had his own definition of a varmint.

I keep thinking about 1,000 spankings, but I can't comprehend hitting a child that many times.
