"You are worthless! Useless boy! How could you spoil your toy? Pick it up!" Morningstar Edward Willson Snr. unfastened his belt and began flogging young Edward Willson Jnr. with it. "Stupid child!" He ranted and cursed. "Spread your arms! Don't touch that table!" Smack! Smack! series of the belt landed on his bareback, tearing deep into the boy's skin.

The door opened to an alarmed Mrs.Willson, "Morningstar, what are you doing? Stop it! You are injuring the boy."

"Get lost b***h! It is your fault that he is a weak, spoilt and lazy brat. You spoil him too much."

" I don't care what you think!" Mrs. Willson yelled. "Just stop this madness."

"Get out of my way, you whore." He kicked and pushed her, causing her to hit her head on the floor.

"Mommy! Mommy!" Willson Jnr. sobbing while shaking his mom. Her head was bleeding and she was immobile. "

See what you caused, you little piece of s**t!" Willson Snr. grabbed a crying Willson Jnr. and flung him across the room. He landed on the floor, breaking his ankle. Willson Snr. picked his phone and called someone. Shortly, a doctor and three nurses arrived, carrying the mother and child away.
