Either way, there's a disturbing pattern to say the least.He was already cleared of those allegations. Media is just trying to keep this Adrian Peterson story going...
Sources close to the investigation tell TMZ the reason the case went nowhere is because Adrian did NOT strike the boy in the forehead -- but instead the child accidentally hit his head on a carseat while Adrian was punishing him.
We're also told the form of discipline was "not impermissible." Under Texas law parents are allowed to administer reasonable punishment.

Kinda, yeah. But now that I'm an adult, I know what they were doing was just learned behavior handed down since biblical times. Doesn't make it right. I smacked my son's ass with a belt once when he was 5, and it was with the least amount of force I could generate without the belt going limp before it hit him, and I felt like freaking crying after the first (and only) swat. It was the most degrading thing I could have done to him, and it made me feel like a worthless bully. So I never did it again. A person of reasonable intelligence ought to be able to convince a child that what they're doing is wrong without resorting to violence.I know there is a line where society has to set a standard and protect kids but isn't a bit weird to any of you that every one of our grandparents if not our parents would be in the same boat?
It shouldn't be a surprise that a father who hit one child with a switch did the same to another.

Interesting Freudian slip there. Crucifixion was an acceptable form of punishment back in the day.oh crucify me then.
