People who are calling this a beating and child abuse are trying to make a mountain out of a mole hill. She wasn't even hitting hard enough to hurt him, a la Adrian Petersen style with a switch.

This mother showing up in person, on the scene, could well be the only thing standing between her son and life in prison.
And because of all the praise for her tough love caught on tape, the boy was able to see from friends and strangers commenting that HIS mom cares and others wish they had a mom or dad who cares. This could well be a turning point for him.
