Chinese New Year is supposed to be a time for families to reunite and wish each other well. However, for an 18-year-old high school student, this year's Spring Festival has become the most painful memory of his life. His father forcibly took him to visit his stepmother's relatives, and he was reluctant because he thought his stepmother was not good to him. He had a heated argument with his father, who, in a fit of rage, slapped him, causing him a head injury and bleeding profusely. His mother saw this scene in **, her heart was like a knife, she said that her ex-husband was a primary school teacher, and if she called the police, it would affect his work, so she could only endure the humiliation. After the local police station intervened in the investigation, it said that the two sides had reconciled as before, and the boy's father had been criticized and educated, and there were no further legal measures.
This incident has aroused widespread attention and discussion in the society, and some people believe that this is a typical case of domestic violence, and the beater should be severely punished to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the victim; Some people believe that this is a misunderstanding between father and son, which should be resolved through communication and understanding, and not to interfere too much in their private affairs. So, what's going on here? Why did such a tragedy happen? How should we view and deal with such problems?
The background of this incident is that the boy's parents have divorced and his father has remarried. The boy lives with his mother and has little contact with his father. He doesn't have a crush on his stepmother and doesn't think she's his family. His father hoped that he would be able to accept his stepmother and get along with her family, so he took him to his stepmother's house to pay New Year's greetings. But the boy was unwilling, he felt that it was disrespectful to him and his mother, and he refused to give New Year's greetings to his stepmother, and even said some rude things. His father thought he was too ignorant and unfilial, so he beat him and wanted to teach him a lesson. He didn't expect that his slap would break his son's head and make him bleed. He regretted it and rushed him to the hospital, but it was too late, and his son's resentment and distrust of him were already deeply engraved in his heart.
The boy's father tried to change his son's attitude by coercion and violence, but it backfired, hurting his son's body and mind and destroying the relationship between father and son. The boy's mother may also be out of concern and love for her son, hoping that he can get along with his father and not let this incident affect his father's work and life. But she didn't protect her son's rights and interests, nor did she hold her father accountable, she could only swallow her anger, making her son feel even more helpless and aggrieved. Of course, this matter also needs the attention and help of the society, and the relevant departments should investigate and deal with this matter fairly, punish the beaters accordingly, and give the victims necessary assistance and compensation, so that they can feel the fairness and justice of the society, and also let them feel the warmth and care of the society.
