The worst thing a parent can do to their child

the worst thing a parent can do to their child is beat them. the reason i said that because when parents beat their children only thing it do is make them do more bad things and get in more trouble than what they was in. another reason i said that is because when you beat your children you might leave bruses then other people may see those bruses and because of that you might lose your children because they see you as a abusive parent or someone else see you as a abusive parent and may call DCFS.
